19th February
Most villages have markets on a particular day of the week and some have daily markets offering fruit, veg, and fresh fish. Today we have chosen to go to the monthly market at Vila Nova De Cachela. The village just inland of Vila Cachela. A really enjoyable day with lots of stalls selling anything and everything. We both bought new slippers for E5 each and a multi pack (12 Pairs) of cotton socks for E5.
The Iberian ham off the bone is delicious as is the chorizo and Portugese equivalent of Parmesan. Large barbeques cooking spatchcock type chicken and bacon, and oddly no fish. Loved it.
Across the road to Vila Cachela beach although we didn't actually make it onto the beach there.
You need waders or a boat, but actually a lovely walk down to it. And then after dropping JC and the pups off, I went of to Olhao to negotiate return of the camera. The staff in the shop 'Box' were amazing. They are all so knowledgable and helpful. They understood my problem and gave me my money back without question. They then got the map of Olhao up on their computer and showed me a place that might be able to mend the camera or if not most likely would have new Panasonics in store.
