Jardins Vale de Parra Albufeira

De ooievaars verzamelden zich, een paar honderd meter van onze boot, voor vertrek naar Afrika. Het waren er honderden. Nog wat ver weg voor de video, maar een prachtig gezicht door de verrekijker.
Weer een stukje film met dolfijnen rond de boot, op weg van Sines naar Lagos ...

I made it to Lagos yesterday. Its basically a beach/party town. The second place that I walked into turned out to be a really great room for 25 euros a night complete with my first english language tv of the trip. Today I spent part of the day in Sagres, the southwestern most point in europe. Good for pictures and walking really really far. Tomorrow I´m going to attempt to get to Seville.

This weekend I went on a trip to Lagos, Portugal with an organization called DiscoverSevilla. I had an absolutely amazing time!!!!!!!!!!! This is my first trip outside of Spain and it couldn't have gone better.

We arrived at the hotel dropped off our belongings and had a few hours to explore before dinner. The hotel was right on the beach and had an absolutely amazing view, I have never seen ...

... in. For the adventurous ones we headed straight in to play. But all of us, especially little Lisa were beaten up and tossed on shore, sometimes without our tops.

That night we had the best prawns in the world. They could even rival the galaxy. This was followed by amazing filet mignons and the enjoyment of great company.

Now after a long bus ride we're here in Sevilla! Glad to see another beautiful and clean hostel with an even more gorgeous ...

... fishbowls' and Megg REALLY liked them.. or REALLY didn't like them, whichever way you want to look at it. The 'having a good time' part of the night didn't last quite as long as I would have liked, but a cousin's gotta do what a cousin's gotta do - we are family!

Anyway, we had a big sleep-in the next day, and we were supposed to go sea kayaking but luckily for Megg the sea was too rough and it got postponed (Phew!). So Megg slept most of the day and I chilled on the beach ...

I recently returned from a beautiful vacation with my girlfriend in Lagos. As a symbol of our commitment, we purchased a pair of brown coconut rings in the main square. There were hundreds of them and they were 1-2 euros.

I broke mine the other day and she is disappointed because of what it represented to her. I'm ...

... to head into London city to get to Gatwick) but since we landed at Terminal 4, we needed to get ourselves to Terminal 5 in order to get on the shuttle service to Gatwick (to do this, we were told to use a local bus, however even the locals had troubles identifying which bus one would catch from which stop as they keep changing them so often,

It actually took 30 mins to get from Terminal 4 to Terminal 5. When at Gatwick, we had problems identifying which was the ...

After rocking up to my Hostel in Lagos at 11:30 at night i was pretty keen to get out see the town so dumped my bags and set off to find the find the first pub with cold beers. The night started pretty calm with a bit of a stroll around Lagos town stopping off for the occasional pint at different pubs. Finally i met this American dude and started drinking with him and before i knew it, it was 8am in the morning ...

... as the railways had been on strike on the Friday! Once again. Armed military patrolling the station and I knew I was in France (or some other strange country) as among the passengers waiting were a woman with a large pet rabbit draped over her shoulder and a man with a cat in a pink basket. The rabbit certainly received a lot of attention. If you like puzzles, I can recommend French railway timetables. Trains are irregular, infrequent and very difficult to work out. Even the ...
