After the surprise visit from Australia, we were fortunate to have booked the end of September/beginning of October to holiday with Viv and Don in Portugal.
Perfect timing and with our Wedding Anniversary on the Sunday also a chance to celebrate.
We arrived on the Friday and were met at Faro airport. A whistle stop at the supermarket and we were out for lunch.
Viv had put together an itinerary to optimise our time, to share their favourites old and new and even a trip to Seville. Here are a few photos of the week
There was laughter aplenty, moments of quiet reflection, good food, fantastic weather and of course, good company!
Holidays should refresh you and help you to face new and old challenges. I certainly feel ready to square up to the challenges I know I will face up to Christmas and beyond, but feel calmer and raring to go!
