Alvita, location four..
This quieter, smaller town location in the middle of rolling plains with spattering of cork trees (couldn't figure those out for quite a while), miles and miles of wheat or straw or something fields,a lovely castle in the middle of town that offered the company of five cute peacocks lounging by the pool. We had supper at a restaurant accross from the Poussada, the owner manged, served, and we think cooked everything, while he also ran the attached hotel apartments. Good food!. (Second night the only other couple dining bought us dinner!)
Two hour trip to the Algarve was awsome! Swimming in theb Mediterranean! The water was so clean and no sea smell, I can see why so many peoople vacation here.
