Last days in Portugal

... and heºs out too. Iºll stop there, youºve got the picture, this surf donºt suit us!! Bring on Bozzy (Boscombe) artificialdom, we canºt wait to try that new manmade surf reef. From now on weºll stick to the mosh pit weºre used to - one with a live band and a load of exuberant front rowers! Ok, roger for Annabelle, Lymºs going to enlighten you on the rest of the day...

Tail between our legs, we head back to Luz beach, enjoyed our first ...

We have noticed a wide variation in prices for eg bread which is very well baked,is cheaper than in the uk. the same goes for beer and wine also fruit and veg. not so items which are imported such as alpen (euro 5 a box pg tips euro 2.40 for 80. Anyhow having stocked up we headed to Praia Mos, a little too late to ...

Stunning

... above the river Odeceixe which runs out to the Atlantic. This was an idyllic location and though the tide was all wrong to surf, we parked up on the river bank within sight of the ocean: an absolutely fantastic location which was all ours complete with open fire. We commented on how different the Portuguese attitude is to free camping; its almost part of their constitution!

Bull fighting

... it was pretty tame until one of the toreadors almost got trampled by one of the bulls, the dude was lucky they dulled the tip of the bulls horns.

Wave riding

... tons of mussels on the bottom, also not fun. The road to get to this lagoon was really sketchy, there's a video in the link below so you can see for yourself.

Back to Lagos via Portimao and Silves

... a bottle of Scotch whisky, from friends in Thailand was delivered to us, in Portugal, by friends from Tarbert - thats my kind of globalisation folks!! Monty continues to thrive and is really enjoying his walking at the moment. He even finishes his walks with a couple of laps round the deck before coming inside. On one occasion we left him to have his stroll on deck when we heard a splash, he had fallen overboard ...

Shopping in Portugal

... on himself, and slurring what sounded like 'hi' to anyone who slightly resembled a female. I don't know if I was a big fan of Lagos, I love having fun and all the rest, but everyplace you walked into was full of bogan Aussies and their apprentice bogans from all over the world. It just felt like we were in the Chiso Tavern or something and I think the only Portuguese people we met were the two blokes that owned the hostel ...

Lagos - a greek island in portugal?

... and had to trek through these baron type of bamboo land to eventually get there. It was getting dark so we sat down for a while and lapped up this awesome weather. Danielle laid back on the sand while Jarrad and myself went down to test the water. I was expecting it to be very chilly, but the water was quite warm and if i had my boardies, which are now lost, i'd definatly jump in further. We then walked down the beach for an hour in the dark back towards ...
