Best sail of the holiday yesterday. We left our home port and had nice sail to Portimao some 10 miles from Albufeira (we actually logged double that mileage with tacking so you can see that we really sailed! It was a lovely afternoon with much booze at lunchtime, a 1.5L bottle of Mateus Rose and many cans of beer. On arrival at Portimao we had our traditional gin & tonic.
A lovely meal in a beach restaurant (Senhora Da Rocha)owned by a dutchman (Jason) was a fitting end to the day. It's hard to think that we are about 5 weeks to xmas and yet we have sunshine and temperatures in the 70's whilst you at home have been suffering rain, high winds and even floods. Well it's us who is suffering!
This morning, Wednesday, we are heading back to Albufeira; clean up the boat and then go for a nice meal tonight at Mario's Restaurant. Tomorrow we return to our loved ones in England. Have a good day. JB

You poor things - you've really been suffering, and still you think of us...... and all the while I was enjoying myself with year 5.
