Dia das Amiga(o)s

This Year I got to experience a really nice Portuguese or rather Azorean cultural event.
This month (just before carneval) there were two special days dedicated to friendship. Those days are called "Dia dos Amigos" (for boys) and "Dia das Amigas" (for girls).
The first ones who get to celebrate are the boys. It is an all boys night. The guys from Corvo met and had dinner together, playing guitar, singing and having fun.
One week later (both days are set on Thursdays - maybe to keep things from getting to wild ;o) us girls had a girls night out. I got to spend the evening with four very beautiful sweet and fun ladies, Susana, Ashley, Patricia and Joana. We started of with some homemade Sangria (best made by Joana) and fun games. Afterwards we had a nice dinner at Ocean's, our local bar. The dinner was special because we grilled our meat ourselves at the table. It was like having a raclette with only the top part. We weren't the only group enjoying ourselves at Ocean's... so the night became a real blast with lots of dancing and fun ;o)

Thanks for sharing that amazing evening with me!


A wonderful tradition that we should absolutely adopt to our culture...
