Those white tents are up again!
The roses are awakening in the castle gardens
Remember this young man, and his Dad?
Igreja Matriz, Sao Bras, on Easter Sunday
And afterwards?
Sweet treats!
I never tire of the view from this bridge
I can’t say it hasn’t been a busy week! Celebrating life at Easter was full of magical moments. And this weekend, Mostra da Primavera, a show celebrating Spring, with music, dance and good food. Last night we experienced spectacular Fado, by the riverside in the Mercado.
Today? Well, it’s World T’ai Chi Day, and at 10.00 this morning I will be taking part in a Flash Mob in Tavira town centre. Wish me luck! Sorry, Debbie- I couldn’t say all that in six words. I’m not ‘up to scratch’. 🙂 Happy Saturday, one and all!
Ah-ha! 😀 A tai-chi flash mob! 😀 How did it go? What was it like to participate? Sounds fun but nerve-wrecking. Will you be posting about it?

I was pretty nervous but once you begin you have to focus and I enjoyed it. Not really time for a full post 😕 xx

Well done and I’m impressed! In January I tried to sign up for a local tai chi but didn’t hear back until last week as their emails were down. I’ll be starting with the latest beginners group soon – very exciting.

It’s all looking splendid darling, I bet the temperature is perfect right now. Fado in the market, I’m not at all envious and the roses are blooming already. Happy days and hugs for you 🙂

It was actually rather nice to be part of, Debbie. 🙂 🙂 Our leader is a lovely man and though I was nervous at being in a public arena there was a good sized group of us. Solidarity in numbers. 🙂 I was too engrossed to take photos but there may be some forthcoming.

Your photos just gave me so many more reasons to love spring! The boats on the river capture my eye though. It’s peaceful and promises escape at the same time.

Crossing over that bridge you can look out towards the ocean or inland to the city, Joanne. I never know which to choose 😍🌊💕
