The Algarve, Portugal

As posted elsewhere, we've just spent a week there, doing a fair bit of walking everyday, sometimes on the cliffs close to our apartment, sometimes in the towns and villages nearby. Great walking weather and very few people. Perfect.
Were somewhat perplexed by this sign though - is he tripping her up, or is it the other way round?
This was a walk from our resort (Rocha Brava) to the nearest town, Carvoeiro.
Walking in the other direction to Carvalho beach and Benagil
This is at the far SW tip of Portugal, once thought to be the end of the world. The fishermen all seemed to have a death wish!

I think she is tripping him up. He is probably walking too fast and she's trying to slow him down.
Excellent photo's, I think I would have wanted to stay for the rest of the winter.

It was brilliant, would happily go back - out of season though. I hate crowds and it sounds as if it does get very busy in summer.

If you have ten minutes to spare this is worth a look,
A really nice place to stay. I am torn now I have been looking forward to the snow but now I am craving sun.
Thanks for sharing that with us.
