TURISCAMPO POOL PARTY DAY & RELIVING SOME VERY SPECIAL MEMORIES FROM LIVING HERE IN 2020!
Lazy screeches good morning. She’s just said goodnight in the Q&A. Creepstopher and the kids went to the pool an hour ago. She feels sorry for him having to edit it as he’ll probably have to cut half the footage. She’s nervous but didn’t say anything bad. She asked people to be nice in the comments and not be nasty to other parents who don’t parent in the same way as them. The poor poor pregnant wife hates the camera as she can’t eyefuck herself in the viewfinder. It’s horrible. Ridiculously loud music over Lazy talking about her drink.
Pool. Creepstopher says the weather is gorgeous. Yesterday was windy so they didn’t film. They’ve had a notification that the European heatwave will arrive there in the next few days. He bet the girls chocolate milk that they couldn’t get him underwater but they managed to do it. He spent an insane amount of time in the campsite shop in summer 2020 and it feels so cool to be back.
Creepstopher managed to find sun cream. He isn’t a big drinker
for someone who seems to have a beer with every meal but he found a litre of Sagres for 1.50€.
Lazy is in the pool. Creepstopher has fixed the viewfinder. She has a full face of make up. They’re in the “tauris-cam-poo” swimming pool. There are jacuzzi jets all around the seating so the moment they turn on she flies out of the pool.
Pool. Waterfalls. Esme has a lot of sun spots/freckles on her face so I hope they are being strict with the sun cream. Creepstopher challenges Esme to swim from one side of the pool to the other underwater without coming up for air. The pool is very long. Creepstopher boasts that he thinks he can do it. Esme manages to make it across the pool. She says it’s Creepstopher’s turn. Camera cuts. Footage of the girls.
Transition back to the rv. Everyone has had showers as they’re off to a beautiful restaurant in Luz. Esme is so excited to go on the bikes and scooters. They’re recreating a memory. They were vegetarian last time but they’re flexitarian tonight. Lazy has been doing maths with Jace and Mila by putting dolls on the shelf and removing them. Jace is hyper and messing up his hair, which Lazy had just done. Mila identifies animals and their sounds. Jace looms over her shoulder.
Creepstopher had to put the awning away because the wind was about to take it away with the van. The bikes and scooters in the evening has become his favourite part of the trip. They can go anywhere. They bought the scooters in 2020 and they had a lot of usage going into Luz. It’s one of their fondest memories.
Creepstopher points out the old pitch. Scooting to Luz.
Praia Da Luz beach. So gorgeous and calm. Creepstopher remembers sitting on the rocks with takeaway pizza to watch the sea. The place is a boss. They’ll have to eat at the Saffron restaurant before they leave. Gorgeous church. Lazy takes photos of the kids. Isabelle has a photo taken with a random homeless man. My mistake… it’s Creepstopher. Clever Mila points out boats and fishies in the water. Shot of the cheese slop pasta tummy. Beach. Church.
Unfortunately the Inghams couldn’t get a table with a spinny bit in the middle at the restaurant so they got a long one instead. They’ve way over ordered. They’ve gone for sweet and sour, chicken and black bean, chicken almond, chow mien, Singapore vermicelli, dumplings for the girls, chicken and mushroom soup for Isabelle, chicken and sweetcorn soup for Lazy and Creepstopher, chicken and oyster sauce, 3x rice, 2x chips and sweet and sour spicy. You can never get a dessert at a Chinese takeaway but Chinese restaurants do the funkiest desserts like battered banana. Lazy is 29 weeks pregnant today. They set off for the trip at 23 weeks pregnant. They flew to Turkey when she was 19 weeks pregnant and returned when she was 20 weeks exactly. The trip has gone really fast but been the best.
Lazy squeals about how cute her soup is. Isla says Mila’s toes look like dumplings and that’s why they want to try them. Shots of the food. Lazy thinks they did really well. Mila asks where Dadda is. He took Jace to the toilet. She is buzzing because she got a Peppa Pig fork.
It’s actually a spoon. Isla liked the oyster sauce. Isabelle liked the almond chicken. Esmé’s favourite was the sweet and sour chicken and almond chicken. Lazy’s was the black bean, as was Creepstopher’s. They had to order another bowl of soup as Jace ate an entire bowl of it. Lazy ate lots too.
The Inghams remember the ice creams in animal shaped cups. Lazy, Creepstopher and Esme are too full for ice cream but everyone else is having one. Daddy opens Mila’s toucan cup. Isla chooses the blue bird, even though the cups are clearly designed for young chuldren up to about 7 years old. Isabelle has a coconut ice cream.
Emotional music plays for the journey home in the pitch black. Creepstopher has put the big metal awning poles on the camping chairs so they don’t fly away. The wind is mad. Craziness. They’re getting settled for the night.
Creepstopher cannot tell us how wicked it was to go into Luz and relive the 2020 feels. He apologises to Babe for not pronouncing his T’s. It’s nice to be back at the van. They’ve ticked off bucket list number one. He doesn’t know if we feel all the feels as well but 2020 was a crazy chapter on their lives. Something wicked is happening tomorrow in a little throwback to 2020.
