Day 7 - Wednesday 27th June

Just like Tony Blair, today is the day to say "goodbye" (to the villa anyway). A lazy day really. We drove to Mondelo's for a few provisions and then back to the villa for Tone's last PM's Questions.

Then, after lunch, swimming in the pool. Paul and I had races - me with the dog; he with the turtle, which we'd bought on the road yesterday). He won all (just!).

Then we went to Ferragudo and a walk around the village, before driving around the corner to the beach, "Praia Grande", fora stroll over the sand, searching for shells, before eating in the restaurant overlooking the beach.

Back to the villa, where Helen put on the pool lights and then we packed up, ready to leave for Sevilla in the morning.
