Day 8







Sunday we were forced into a lazy day. We experienced a major thunder and lightening storm that lasted almost 24 hours. We had rain ranging from a drizzle to a downpour. After making big breakfast at the Villa we drove for a while and found this beach - Marinha - not far from the Villa. Fortunately the rain had stopped enough for us to wander through the puddles and take some amazing pictures. We then went into Carvoeiro for beer and pizza and then drove around scouting out future trips for the coming week. We went back to the hotel across the street for a wonderful dinner and they actually seemed to enjoy us coming back. We're writing this on Monday morning. The lightening, thunder and rain have all stopped and there is even some sunshine. Hopefuly there will be more stories tomorrow. Oh yes, we have hot - maybe warm - water!!

Sounds like you don't need hot water - just stand outdoors with a bar of soap and let the rain do it.

And glad to see you have time to take in a beer or two!
