The Portuguese Bait Shop

After church, Fernando took us to eat at a restaurant that is now only known to us as the "Portuguese Bait Shop." It was somewhere he had never been before, and by his own admission, it was the worst meal he's ever had in Portugal. There was nothing but sushi on the menu, and it was the real, raw fish kind of sushi. I tried a few pieces, but if its not a fried shrimp tempura roll, it's not for me. I will never forget glancing over and watching Jamie chew and work very hard to swallow what was in his mouth. So. Funny! To top things off, one of the girls found a live caterpillar in her sushi. At that point, I was officially done eating. The combination of hardly any sleep and eating at the bait shop for lunch did not work well for me. I spent the afternoon curled up in a ball with a bad stomach ache. It almost ruined going to the evening service for me, but I made myself get up and go anyway. Needless to say, we will not be returning to the Bait Shop and we now have a long-running sushi story to tell!
I got to Facetime with the boys! It was so good to see their faces!
