Sun shows his face after going missing most of the past week or so ... looking fair for a while and the whole organism is game for a decent walk ... after breakfast it's off West along remembered route, swift enough without diversions for coffee, which comes after nearly two hours by the Ria Formosa nature reserve and a fish restaurant with 50 or more covers set for Sunday lunch ... on to Fuseta and checking train times find 20 minutes spare to pop into the shop for some eggs to add to the salad waiting in the fridge ... train shared with jolly group of English holidaymakers, heading for Tavira and some drinking ... though they are in their own bubble, so no space for philosophy ... pursued in the delightful silence of the three hour walk, seeing how the land has gratefully absorbed all the rain, preparing for drier days to come ... though not just yet according to the forecast. ..today a brief respite before rain returns ...
Back at the hostel, Julian, from near Brighton, is waiting to check in, having been west to Faro, Portimao, Lagos ... while Vento and Paco are waiting for the 4pm bus to Seville, having missed the earlier one ...
Anne-Marie and Ole, on holiday from Denmark, discuss things political and social while the thunder rumbles outside ... otherwise very quiet in the hostel ....
