Animal care AKA cleaning
... my next move and never sitting around for too long. Turns out I made a good call.
If I knew exactly what was in store for me I may have given the opportunity a miss, but I´m glad I didn´t.

Travel to Mertola, Portugal
Today we travelled about 2 and a half hours by bus to Mertola in Portugal where we would be spending the rest of the trip. It rained all the way there and we stopped on the way at a town in Portugal called Serpa. We had a little look round and stopped for a drink but didn't do much due to the rain.
