12th March,
We decide to take Simon down to the Ria De Formosa to our now favourite beach Fabrica. It is Monday and the restaurant on the beach there is closed, but the beach is still looking absolutely stunning and the tide is well out. Gybo is in her element racing around and Simon is taking loads of pics on his iPhone. He walks on and says he will meet us back at the beach bar and we go back with the dogs to dry out and get a coffee. Some time later we are getting worried and there is no sign of him. I call him. No answer. A few minutes later he phones to say he is fine. There have been some armed police around and he has found his way into a rather grand bar/sunbathing platform. Although the bar is closed.
We think this must be part of the Golf club just down the coast. How did he get there!? After some more calls and a lot of us sitting around, he comes back. I am rather grumpy now as we set off to find a tapas lunch.
After trying to the fabulous place at Prai Verde which was closed, we end up at a place on Monte Gordo beach which I seem to remember we visited 5 years ago. Lunch was less resplendent than yesterday's but we had planned a cook up supper. Left over lamb curry. And it was delicious.
