Day Nine — Baleal

The rocks and beach and waves around the surf resort of Baleal were the subjects for today’s painting exercise.

Three of our intrepid non-painters, John, Chris H. and Ben, went for a surf before lunch but had to dodge the surf school students on their learner boards.

A walk back along the causeway to a seafood lunch.

And then another painting demo from Ev for the artists in the afternoon, while Ben and Neil went for a surf and others took a nap on the sand.

This evening, Ev gave a night class on the main street of Óbidos.

And so ends our Portugal painting tour. Tomorrow a few fanatical footy fans will be up at 5.30 am to watch the AFL Grand Final before we bid adeus to Óbidos and head to Lisbon.
