internet cafe?

Post by Guest »

We arrived out here about 3.30pm on Wednesday 30th safe & well having set out from home about 5.30am on the Monday. H & I, 2 dogs & a cat set out on our own incredible journey & had a wonderful drive down, the hotel we stayed at on the 2nd night even sent up biscuits for the dogs! (yep we were on the 3rd floor, 1st time the dogs had been in a lift).
The reason I'm posting though is that the villa we are in at the moment has no internert facility & as yet we have been unable to find anywhere we can access the internet, all the cafes we know of seem to be closed.
Does anyone know of somewhere that is open & what hours they are open?
Thanks in anticipation. :D

& just in case I can't get on line before Christmas -
I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas & I wish you all health, wealth, & happiness for the coming new year :lol: :lol:

The last time I was in CVO it was possible to get on internet also in the RB Café at Rocha Brava. Take a look at this link: http://www.carvoeiro.com/rbcafe/ I don't know if they give this service at the moment.

Could be guest - but since Blue drove to Portugal I assumed a car was in evidence.

Besides, I don't know which part of Carvoeiro Blue lives in. It my be nearer to the golf course than the town.

Probably best I keep quiet in future eh guest?

There used to be internet facilities at the Bar/restaurant at Vale de Milho golf course. Worth checking out if you are near there.

Thanks to everyone for info'/responses we obviously had been looking in the wrong places or/& at the wrong times!
We are actually in Sesmarias, near the water tower renting here for 6 months while we look to buy a permenant home, so Pestana not too far.

travelling with pets

Post by bobby jacobs »

Could I please ask guest how he managed to travel with a cat from UK to PT. I can understand it would be possible with a dog who could be exercised etc. I intend to fly with the cat while my other half drives over. Unless anyone can tell me any tips to drive with a cat. Obviously a cat box is needed but what about toilet stops, hatel stops etc

Hi Bobby,
We did the trip with our GS Dog via the Channel Tunnel staying in 2 hotels, 1 in France and the other in Spain before arriving in the Algarve....everytime we stopped for fuel, I took our dog for a walk etc.
With a cat, of course you need a large cage with a litter tray and a cat could be left in the car oer night (of course depending on the time of year and temp etc).....
