Mare De Agosto!!

The initial reason for my trip, or at least the excuse for it, was THIS festival. 

Craziness on Santa Maria, on the best beach in Portugal (and the world) crowned by 3 nights of music. 

There are festivals EVERY WEEKEND of the summer, on at least one of the islands. I'm trying to track them all down!

While I have wifi, let me share a photo or two. I might appear on TV, and can be found in the VIP area. ;)

NB: My mom had told me that the Sopas Festas were also on various islands, but sometimes I've found multiple ones on one island on the same day! (Multiple sopas are not recommended!)
