Ideas please for wet weather activities with kids!

Hi
We are arriving tomorrow with our two boys, aged 6 and 11 and the weather does not look good! Does anyone have any suggestions please on what we can do with them if the wet and not very warm weather is there?!
Thanks
Steve

Re: Tivoli Refurbishment

Their best guess was the 6th to re-open but we couldn't take that chance! Have booked Quinta Do Paraiso as been there before so know it well and didn't have time to start looking in to alternatives for such a large group!

Re: Tivoli Refurbishment

Apologies if this has been written elsewhere but the Tivoli will not be opening on the 1st April! We got an email at the weekend as have large booking (29 of us in the end!) for arrivals between 4th and 7th to say that they wouldn't be opened in time - best guess was the 6th! Offered us other hotels...

Re: Facilities when land at Lisbon Airport

thanks for replies, motorway services are fine but was just thinking might fill the kids up before we start and then hope they sleep and I don't need to stop to feed them before CVO!

Re: Go Karting Centre

Hi we took a 17 year old (did the hour and loved although walked like a cowboy for the next few hours!) and a 9 year old (only the half hour which I felt as his Dad was enough and he totally loved it!) I think the hour was about €64 and the half hour €32 but is a good track and the staff look after ...

Re: Best places to eat in Carvoeiro

Original Stone Steak House (for fun eating) and O Salmao (for a proper meal with veggies and stuff rather than just chips!) at Monte Carveoiro. Ma-Ja's for great food and super hospitality - Mark will always go out of his way to do something for the kids even if it is not on the menu!

Re: Apolonia opened yet ?

I would also be keen please on price and availability of goods with Interrmarche? Planning to start in Aldi and then head to Intermarche but more than happy to go to Appolonia if I can get the same range at comparable prices?

Slide and Splash Tickets

Hi Does anyone in CVO know how much tickets for Slide and Splash are if bought at the outlets in town? Their website has tickets as being €26 or €22.10 if bought on line in advance with an offer of €44.20 for two adults with one child free. Thus, I was wondering I buy on line before I go or just get...

Re: Which is your favourite bar in Carvoeiro and why?

Cocktail Garden for the hosts and a laugh with the owners plus the wife likes a cocktail! Bistro 72 for a relaxing beer with a great (sized!) bar snack Rascal's for the view once you have climbed the steps (not easy with a pushchair but worth it!) Basically, been going to CVO and not been in a bad b...

Pool Table

Hi
We will be staying in Monte Carvoeiro so know that the Cocktail Garden and Tiffany's have them but can anyone recommend anywhere else in town with a Pool Table please? Particularly that won't mind me bringing our 9 year old so not the best at cue-ing!
Thanks
Steve

Re: SMA First infant milk

Hi Don't recall seeing the made up cartons we can buy here but SMA in powder form is available in most big supermarkets eg Intermarche, Continente. It is more expensive than at home but not by that much when you consider the weight and space issues of carrying from home! We took the usual bottles la...
