Where
have
you
seen
this
before?
Don’t recognise it? It’s Tavira in the Algarve, but I’m home again, with that pocketful of memories. You know I love to share, so here I am, participating in Six word Saturday.
Have a beautiful weekend, wherever you are, and don’t forget to join Cate at Show My Face. Just click on the logo, or the links.








Lovely town. I stayed there once, many years ago, but I expect it’s much the same – hope so!

Not hugely different I don’t think, Kat, though it’s grown around the outskirts a little, with a few really beautiful renovations in the centre.

Watching 🙂 Yesterday is history. We fight on! Fingers, eyes and toes crossed 🙂 My son is a Spain supporter. They made England look good.

I also supported Spain mainly because I don’t like the nation they played against. The only match that really interests me is taking place on Wednesday, and I know that we will win 🙂

I will cheer for your side (with my headphones on 🙂 )

Nice to see you again Jo – a short but sweet trip, I look forward to the stories behind these snapshots. And love the vygie – well that’s what we called them in SA, but I think we know them as mesembryanthemums here. Grew all over the sand-dunes and vlei and spectacular in spring.

I’ve just had this discussion with Amanda, Jude. Mick calls them Hottentot Figs, I’ve always thought they were Livingstone Daisies, but a notice board at Sagres described them as Ice Plants? One of us may be right 🙂 But it doesn’t matter because they’re beautiful.
