Malhao, Porto Cove and Sines, Alentejo, Portugal

This morning is warmer than the previous mornings. I have a warming breakfast of pancakes and coffee. At 11:00 Paul, Craig, Fern and I head into Porto Covo. We take a quick look around, and head to the library. I leave my van and Paul drives into Sines. We take a look around, and get a little shopping. I get some long johns from Lidl. The town is nicer than the chemical plants around it.

This morning is warmer than the previous mornings. I have a warming breakfast of pancakes and coffee. At 11:00 Paul, Craig, Fern and I head into Porto Covo.

The town is nicer than the chemical plants around it.

We head back to Porto Covo, I collect my van. We drive back to Malhao. The winds are onshore, and nobody goes surfing. The weather is supposed to get warmer tomorrow.
