The tributaries upriver are not disturbed by a single ripple.
The tributaries upriver are not disturbed by a single ripple.
Even the main river flows silently.
Mud, mud, glorious mud.
Winter Algarve beaches, quite different to their summer cousins.
The rocks slowly turn into beach.
There are difficult sports and then there is this.
Taking in the sunset.
The sun sinks yet again.
NMEA, ST, STNG. The joy of boat communication protocols.
It’s a good job that we’re loaded up with spares.
Larry and Pigamus have a final goodbye.
The magic of the expanding mattress begins.
The no 1 beach activity. Castle building.
Surf’s up.
Carving knives and mattresses what a winning combination.
The final touches.
Iain gets into his technology.
Time for one last bit of final trimming, sewing and then sleeping.
Is there space for Iain in that locker?
Not much room for anything else in there (including Iain’s hands).
Nearly done. Phew.
Just how many tools do you need for a little job?
Water shouldn’t be in there.
We thought we got away from ‘the grey’.
Beaches devoid of people.
80’s art in tiles.
They are well deserved beers.
We’re joined by some feathered friends.
Larry rolls over and submits. Wimp!
