Saudades Primos/Primas, Aqui tudo bem - a Helena e o Richard lá vão para o Egipto outra vez! Até a gatinha, Zoe! Vou passar muitas saudades deles e também de Santo Amaro este verão. Mais espero a primeira netinha para fim de Junho!

Hi primos - Here is a photo of Zoe, Helena & Richard's cat on the way to Egypt. They arrived this week for Helena's new job. Also - there is Tia Rosa with Felicia and Ross at their baby shower.
Since we won't make it to Pico this year I hope those of you who do send some photos from the Azores for posting here - please!! I'm gonna miss it! Also send me any news to post...??
Send to me or post here as a comment. Muitos abraços, uma quase avózinha.

2009-01-20T17:26:00.010-01:00

Hi primos e primas - just want to let you know that next Monday the Travel Channel show, "No Reservations" will be in the Azores. They contacted me to use some of the Capelinhos Volcano footage (so they might include a small clip of that).
As we speak, Rafaella is beginning her semester in Paris (best luck and love - send us pictures!) and Felicia & Ross are expecting a special delivery in June! Happy Janeiro, and Happy Inauguration Day!! Abraços e saudades, Marlene

...Looking back at the amazing summer, once again in Santo Amaro (notice the familiar cloud over SA!! - but we actually had amazing weather this year!)

Hey everyone!

It's a little after the fact, I know, but I wanted to put up my pictures from last summer to add to the lovely ones we have access to already. The link is above if you click on the title of this post.

At the very least, it can serve to remind us of what a great time we all had!

I'm loving the blog and I'm so glad we can all keep in touch this way. Hope everyone is doing well!

love,

Rafaella

2008-01-16T19:04:00.000-01:00

Hi All,
It's been a couple of years since I've seen most of you. Life has been busy! Here are some pictures of my little baby Julia born July 24th 2007! She can't wait to meet you and take her first swim at the porto in Sto Amaro. We'll be updating the photos as the year goes on...Take care! Susana

Pico...what a place!

Sooooooo many pictures....

We will try not to bore everyone by including the pictures of Boneca (the cat) under the carinha or the close-up of Jess' right eyeball (lol...you think I'm kidding?) Thanks to everyone for sharing their pics and especially to Marlene for coming up with the idea and getting it rolling!!

Our pictures are now on facebook....please use this link: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2360&id=100000322237564&l=f302ae2508.

Have fun and ENJOY!

a mosca back home

2007-08-18T18:02:00.001Z

So I'm back in Oakland but at night I still dream in Santo Amaro. I think it's jet lag. What a place - and the people! I go to Pico for the rocks and ocean but I'm always surprised by the family connections which go so far back and leave such saudades. Click on the porto picture to see my photos. I can't wait to see everyone else's. We should start a Santamaro flickr group? Some of us talked about a web site or something to keep in touch so I thought a group blog might be a good start. I'll send an e-mail with directions for anyone who needs it. If anyone (Zach?) has more information or ideas on this stuff put it on the blog. Abraços.
