Sat 31 May- after a nice buffet breakfast, we left for Turcifal and the Westin Campo Real, a new (Aug 2007) golf hotel/condo resort. We took a secondary road with a side trip to drive through the ocean town Peniche, a fishing village that has evolved into a larger beach town.
Our condo is quite large, with its fold-out sofa, 4 people could stay comfortably; there's a kitchen with stove, refrigerator and several appliances including espresso maker; flat panel TVs in living room and bedroom; a large terrace with nice view of the golf course and hills; a large bathroom with separate toilet/bidet, sink, shower and bath areas. We found out buffet breakfast is included in the room rate of E135/night. What a bargain! We had the buffet lunch E25/each, and got to get our fill of vegetables, salads and desserts. The Portuguese menus at the restaurants tend to be monotonous and don't include much vegetables or greens.
There is not much "tourist" stuff to do, so we'll catch up on email, Kiyomi will work or watch the French Open, and I'll read my Dean Koontz "The Key to Midnight", pretty good so far, and work on photos. It looks like it might rain as predicted. Fortunately, it was nice while we were driving and walking.
