Re: New experience
We saw a couple whilst we were over in July - the seagulls had great fun chasing the first one all the way down to the beach - hope they got it
It made me wonder what sort of pervert was flying a drone over the swimming pools of the villas on the hill up from the Jailhouse

Re: Tipping
I always tip providing the meal and service is acceptable. The amount depends how much I have enjoyed myself at the establishment and is a statement of appreciation.

Re: Faro for the day
Went to the beach at Faro last year - to be honest, I thought it and the town was a bit dreary and scruffy.

Found a new one this year - Casa do Pao - was superb.

Re: Mar D'Fora (ex O Boteco)
We ate there a couple of weeks ago. The new decor etc is beautiful - feels and looks clean and fresh. Food was super - cost was a little higher than other places - I paid €85 for 2 people but that was 3 courses each plus bottle of wine, 2 coffee liqueurs and beer.

Re: change (again) in traffic direction
It's chaos at the moment - they changed it yesterday and there are new signs pointing which way to go but as yet, there is no "No Entry" sign to stop cars going down the last bit.

Re: O Boteco
For many years this was one of our favourite restaurants despite the poor reviews - we always had good service and good meals and the kids were always entertained by the waiters. I admit it had gone downhill over the last few years and we have not been there for the last 3 years. However, we are bac...

Re: Night time attack & robbery

This would make it easier for them to get away by having a car or more than one waiting for a quick getaway. Down by the main beach and Monte Carvoeiro it's more of a maze and they are forced by on...
