Yesterday was one of those nights with a strong smell of Sea, which i love if i can forget what it does to my mirrors.

Anyway, artillery prepared, hair heater, shields activated and go.

Portugal lives up to its reputation then. Each time I went to Lisboa there was so much sea fog that I couldn’t understand how you guys can manage to shoot anything in the sky.
Nice M16 Tiago !

Thanks Clouzot. But be aware that Algarve is completely different from the rest of Portugal. It's almost like leave in another country.
