It looked as though we could walk around a path on the beach but we only got so far and had to turn back. Fortunately, there was an elevator to take us back up to the top street, rather than having to walk all the way back through town.
Going back to the subtitle of this blog - where have all the budgies gone?, I wanted to comment on the disturbing habits of the men around here, (usually fat, old, ugly or a mixture of all 3 ), of wearing budgie smugglers, (Speedos to the uninitiated!!), whilst walking around the town, and another worrying 'fashion' which sees them rolling their normal swim shorts up to create a nappy look - neither is a good look and surely ought to be against the law?? you will be pleased to note that there are no photos to accompany this section of the blog!!
Our plan for this evening was to try and resolve some issues with the Sat Phone system but this is proving somewhat difficult, and further, much more technical, support is needed. Tonight we are staying in, and tomorrow we go to Vilamoura which os about 7miles away as we are meeting Suzanne there who is coming to join us for a few days sunshine.
