Jack Sparrow

We parked our car in this unusual nonsensical spot by the highway about an arrow away from the sea where waze was telling us to. There was nothing there.. just a grass hill, some eroded dirt due to the asphalt that cut through the natural landscape and us with strange expectations.

"U guys sure this is the spot?" one asked as we left the car "I don't see anything here.."; "Yes I'm sure! I saw the picture of this grass hill when I goggled it. And here where Ivo is standing is ..." and he went on explaining each random spot that had no reason whatsoever to be special.

// The guy that was explaining is Thales a friend from my home town

We had gone there to visit a spot that was allegedly famous for being the place where Jack Sparrow liked to sleep. This random place close to the sea and by the highway! People found out about the spot and it became a hipster thing where they would go to see Jack Sparrow and spend the night under the stars.

For our surprise, little by little, people started parking their cars by the highways and random vendors started walking around selling all sorts of beverages and souvenirs.

I was standing on some sand full of dog poo.. it was supposed to be famous for that to!?!  As I pondered if I wanted to clean out the spot to sleep there or maybe explore around other places the man of the sea showed up walking up the highway on his 'stumbling with the waves' fashion.

"Oh hello there, I like it, nice beard!" He said to a fat guy as he passed through the people staring at him. "I'll have that drink, thank you..." as he took someones cup "uhh hot chick" as he passed through another group. Step after step he reached the grass hill as predicted, he didn't even take 3 seconds to take his boots off or cover his face with his hat, he just basically threw himself to the grass hill and fell asleep.

:)

We would sleep there too.. after that moment of silence induced by everyone's satisfaction had passed.. well I'll leave it to you to imagine.
