hotel in AlgraveThe time came, that we had to leave Lisboa. We moved about 250 kilometres to the south in Portugal to a small place called Villamoura. We keep mostly away from the Freeways but that is not always possible. You see more on the small roads. We had a nice time when we stopped for a coffee at a roadhouse. There we had some fun with the Girl that served us and long distance drivers. The Girl spoke English, she worken in America before. Our family Hotel near Villamoura was also a Spa and health club. The first night we were in a double bedroom. At our age that is not comfortable. Okay for the young couples that are there for the weekend, that need only half the bed, but with our seize, it is a bit small. The following night we were upgraded and had twin beds. The area is a sort of mini Gold coast. The English fly here within a couple of hours, one week on the beach, burning, browning and back to rainy England, showing of their temperary skin colour. English is the spoken word around here. We did not like it that much, to touristy. Allthough again

beds on the beach the people are lovely. Liz knew how to get to the beach, Ha. Oh well, we saw the neighbourhood. Finaly we did find it and what do you know, they have beds on the beach. We supose that is to assist the people who take a siesta,( from 1-4 ). without eating sand. Than we arrived at the Marina in Villamoura. Million dollar boats, all sorts of expensive cars everywhere. Portugal in trouible?? must be a different country or some very clever accounting practices. It was a lazy day that was very good for us. And you know the many people here, Australia is still the Golden Country. Good to know. Tomorrow we leave Portugal and will be back in the South of Spain. Bye Liz & Allan.
