Trains, Boats and Planes.

Just returned from another journey back in time to the resort of Cabanas in the Algarve, where you can still see bikes left unchained and you can enjoy fresh local food at reasonable prices.

The hire car would have been great if hubby had not forgotten his driving license, but it meant that we did plenty of walking and also had a couple of nice train journeys.




We also met up with my friends Tony and Sue, who have worked hard enough to be able to retire to Cabanas a couple of years ago, where they are enjoying the fruits of their labours.


One of those fruits is a nice little boat with which they took us to a private little beach on the Ria Formosa to do a little fishing and sunbathing (on the only day the sun stayed in). Sue also made us a beautiful Sunday lunch.

On one of the days we followed a road sign which we never noticed last year, but instead of arriving early in Canada, we arrived in the Town of Tavira, and had a great time there before catching a train to Conceceau then walking the rest of the way home.



The last picture is hubby chilling out on what may be our last European holiday for a long while.
We are just waiting for a start date in Canada now as all the contracts and other documents have been completed.
