All Aboard on the Alqueva

The highlight of today has to have been the two-hour sail in Tiago's 104 year old flat-bottomed Dutch sailing barge. This time, the wind was so strong, they had to reef the main sail. This was from the other side of the Alqueva Lake (western Europe's largest artificial lake - over 100 hundred km long).

Extra of the flamenco dancers last night; well, early this morning, actually - Ricardo, the guy, was especially good dancing to a fado. While there, got a text from our youngest, telling us about London - feels a million miles away... She texted again tonight to say how good the One Love Manchester concert had been, to end on a positive note.
