February 18 - Loulé and Faro


Being Saturday, we decided to visit the main market in Loulé, located about a 20-minute drive from our apartment. Lots of fresh fish, meat, cheese and produce on sale. At one point we asked one of the venders about a certain cheese and a little girl standing next to us around 10 years of age said that it was very good and immediately put her hand out looking for a tip since she had helped. The vender told us that it was a Gipsy girl and not to give her anything. They are everywhere and tend to be quite a nuisance.


Many species of fish that we don't see back home

After Loulé, we continued to Faro bit a bit before returning to our apartment. It was quite windy at the beach and the kite surfers were out in full force.
