Yes, it will be very hot - I am not due over again this year!! I never iron prior to packing and always make sure our accommodation has an iron and ironing board. Then, when we arrive, I unpack and iron everything before hanging the clothes up. Then we look relatively smart when we are about town. Maybe a little sad, but I don't like the creased look !

Days of course - can already taste the Long Island Iced Teas at the Cocktail Garden - which is usually followed by waking up on Sunday morning wondering where I am and what happened :shock:

since arriving in the rain the weather has warmed up beautifully, in the mid 30's, blue skies, gentle sea breeze, happy days!

but I don't want the clock to move quite as fast as you do :)

11 days :D fancy going on a boat trip from Carvoeiro beach - does anyone know what time of day is best to go - would like to see in the caves so I'm guessing it would be low tide. Any idea when that is likely to be in August?
