We happily left Portimao as soon as the clouds
split. A scenic sail along the Algarve coast with cliffs, grottos and
long beaches before we reached Vilamoura. We passed more famous Albufeira
somewhat reluctantly (but not when we saw all the big condos along the
beach), and was pleased with ourselves having chosen Vilamoura when we
arrived. Another large marina, but well designed around the basin with charming
restaurants and somehow a less commercial feel. Turned out this is a big gold
resort also and many more gold coourses close by. More rain and thunder so we
stayed another day for more school and in between laundry, pool
(biljard) and a short trip to the loooong beach. Strange snails and jelly fish
was added to our sea discovery list.
Everybody enjoys grandma Erna visting - and
