Tuesday 19th August
In the hospital at 8:30, operation called "rekonstrukcia digestiva" led by dr. Esteves
Double lunch in the canteen has already become standard.
At 1:30pm there is a meeting with Hugo at Entrecampos and he takes us to Praia Grande in his huge Peugeot 505. He charges us 5 euros each for diesel fuel saying that the car "drinks too much". There are big waves on the beach and so we surf. It is more difficult than before but I am less tired. After packing up our stuff at 6:30pm Hugo goes to have a dinner and is having it until 7:15pm. He is happy and talks to everybody who goes by. But we are getting a little bit nervous and worried about OUR dinner in the canteen. Hugo knows that we must be there at 8pm, but it keeps him perfectly calm. After fast and in the end absolutely frantic ride with Offspring on the radio with speakers on full power we finally reach canteen at 8:15 and within 20 minutes consume double dinner.
In the evening nobody goes anywhere.
