Day 55 (Monday, November 22, 2021)
Costs for the Day are in the Table below:
I woke up at 7am and went for my morning run and calisthenics workout. Here is what I did:
Ran 1.29 Miles (0.6 Miles to the Calisthenics Park and back), 4 sets of 10 pullups to chest level or as high as possible, 4 sets of 10 dips from the bar going as low as possible, 100 pushups (25/25/25/25), 4 sets of 8 straight leg raises, 4 sets of 10 chin ups, 1 minute straight arm planks – Right/Left/Regular – with dips or arm/leg raises in last 15-30 seconds, 1 minute flutter kicks, 4 sets of side holds from the bars, 50 inverted rows from the rings (20/15/15), 3 sets of pushups from the rings.
Once back at home, I made coffee and decided to spend some time trying to determine how to easily and efficiently obtain my daily news updates on world affairs. Here is what I decided to try:
Daily News
News Summaries via Email: I signed up for Need2Know and The Skimm
Podcasts: For Daily News updates, I decided to try World News Tonight with David Muir by ABC News and also the Global News Podcast by the BBC.
I’ll give these a try for a week or two and see if I like them or adjust from there. I tend to like the news channels that focus on the main facts and timelines without injecting obvious bias or opinions. This is surprisingly hard to find these days. Let me know if you suggest others to try!
Dog Training
We also started jointly watching puppy training videos. We are trying the Free 30 Day Perfect Pup with Zack George.
Praia do Camilo
In the afternoon, I signed up for a Surf Transfer (Cost: 25 EUR) at Jah Shaka for tomorrow and we went for a bike ride and a snorkel at Praia do Camilo. We didn’t see any extraordinary sea creatures but we did find a beautiful secret beach!
Here is the video below!
After snorkeling and exploring, we biked home and showered up. I cooked spaghetti for dinner with sausage, onions, mushrooms, and tomatoes with grated cheese on top. I think it turned out quite well.
