In keeping with local tradition, we do our marketing on Saturdays for the few days that follow. For a change and because it came highly recommended , we set off for the market in São Brás de Alportel. It’s much smaller than the Olhão market but equally interesting. I learned the hard way, that one must buy fresh eggs when you see them, otherwise the chance is gone!


It was a planned meet up of Randy, Marc, Patricia, Gary and myself with a walk about and then lunch at a local restaurant.























And then it was time to head back to Estoi where I chose to go for another short hike. I caught sight of two hoopoe birds and attempted to get a photo…not successful…kept following..until I realized I was on private property! Abrupt about turn and retired quickly!







And so another day in my escape from winter comes to an end.
