Adventures continue

Hi everyone. We are happy to report that our car has been located and there is no apparent damage to it.All we need now is the T.V. Anyway, today we visited a little village on the water not too far from Albufeira. It's called Olhos d'Agua and was recommended by our new Canadian friends Louise and Guy. They are from Ottawa and have been coming here every year for 8 yrs. for 3 months at a time. They have been a great source of information for us as they are curious people and spend a lot of time exploring and talking to the locals. Louise is even taking conversational Portugese lessons. May as well be able to communicate if you are going to spend that much time here. They have travelled all over the world and have lots of good stories to tell. After Olhos d'Agua we headed for Tavira where Brenda and Basil stayed some years ago. We were already there once but it was so cold and windy that we didn't really get a feel for it. Today was lovely. The square was full of people sitting out in front of all the cafes sipping coffee or beer and soaking up the sun. Speaking of beer I think that's where we will head next. Angelu's is a Portugese bar (Marguerite) that caters to the English tourists. Thats where we head for on most afternoons and meet up with the usual suspects. It's hard to believe that our time here is coming to an end. We hope that Sicily will be as nice. Hope that you are all well and happy. Please say hello to everyone at Michaelbrook. We miss you all! Adios for now!!
