I thought I’d put together a celebration of Algarve lines before Becky calls time on the Lines and Squares challenge this month. I found the above in a craft shop in Alte and was half-tempted to take it home. And I love the faded mosaic patterns on the stone tables beside Fonte Pequena.
Not strictly Algarve lines, because we nipped across the border. Fred was very taken with this tiny door in a wall in the sleepy, Spanish village of Sanlucar de Guadiana. He couldn’t get in though. Maybe some of Alice’s cake? ‘Eat me!’
Back on this side of the border, I can never wander in Santa Luzia without finding something my camera likes.
And finally, a little razzamatazz in Loulé on market day. Overkill, or what? I’m traveling today but will try and keep up with you. Meanwhile, for Becky, it’s a rosy End of the Line. Many thanks to our wonderful hostess for keeping us distracted throughout October.
Nobody seems to like the carpet. Shame. It’s ok, would be amazing in the right place I reckon. Brilliant photos as always Jo.

It is a bit garish, Jonno. Not really my cup of tea but I liked all the silverware. 🙂 🙂 Thanks, hon!

I would definitely be tempted to take that first crafty window home, so artistic. That tiny door is quite mysterious too
