Faro…March 2nd

Posted on March 7, 2022 by Peter and Nia — 2 Comments

Cat Burglary at the Cathedral, Sardines on the beach, impertinent cranes, …Faro has it all.

We stopped for a couple of nights at Faro, capital of the Algarve, on the south coast of Portugal.

Beach side Restaurant. We paused here for sardines and other delicacies.

Sardines by the beach, listening to the Atlantic rollers rumbling in (us, not them).

The campsite is on a spit of sand about 2km from Faro town. We took the ferry over.

Faro cathedral

Coco checking out the cathedral. She had to be carried.

Faro old town from the Cathedral roof.

John dropped his guide book from on high and had to vault a wall and sprint across the cathedral roof, before security clocked him, like a cat burglar. We were impressed.

Impudent Crane. On a statue of some worthy in the main square.

Another Crane. On the Belmarco Palace.

Lunch at a seafood restaurant in the sun.

Drinks on the beach. We watched the sunset. Coco and Phoebe watched the nibbles.
