Sunday 20 January 2013


A quiet day planned today – still showery but bright. A walk into Portimao was, we thought, a good idea but the centre was a lot further away than it appeared. We passed through a residential area, mostly blocks of apartments, with the locals out for a Sunday morning visit with their neighbours. There were small cafes everywhere all quite full, although we did see the odd little unattractive restaurant with nobody in it.


Looking towards campsite from Portimao Town
Nothing much for the rest of the day, just relaxing people watching. It was quite obvious that many of the motorhomes parked up had been here for a while and it was a bit like a small community. There was a guy in the little reception cabin and people did appear to be going in, but nobody came round – bit confusing as one book said it was “gratuit” while another said 2 euros. Probably should have asked, 2 euros is nothing really so we feel a tad guilty.
