Keith said yesterday there have been a lot of pictures of me pushing my bike in this year’s blog!
2 years agoIt was! We biked through Albufeira today, and think we should have paid more attention to your advice (cannot remember where we read it) to give it a pass. The highlight was the dentist who branded his business Oralgarve. It was all downhill, in a metaphoric sense, from there.
2 years agoWe felt pretty lucky.
2 years agoThe article was so interesting. The mention of Ferdinand, one of my all time favourite children’s books was a delight. The plight of the cork industry was not.
2 years agoYou are amazing. I am settling in to read this right now. Thanks ever so much.
2 years agoGrit and gravel - way to push on Kathleen!
2 years agoI’d forgotten about this bridge, which we biked also. It was a little unnerving though with the gaps on either side of the surface.
2 years agoWow!
2 years agoCorrect!

Thanks Rich - we are a bit envious of you two living where you do and the endless opportunities you have to explore this part of the world. Hopefully one day we will get to meet. We have yet to cycle in the Pyrenees so that just might be next on our list.
2 years agoWe loved it too. It was actually nice staying in quiet Luz though. Funny thing, from the water I looked up at the hiking trail and wished we had time to do that too. Next time!
2 years agoI love Lagos! We spent a few days there and did 2 hikes along the cliff but your photos make me want to see it from the water! We will be there the end of next year.
2 years agoThat looks delicious!
