Mad about golf, enthusiastic about life, totally in love with my husband and just having fun.
Rich, Caz and kids went to the Zoo Marine water park, which was “fantastic”. Jack said to his parents when he left “I have had the best day”! Bless, thats all you want. Nick, Daph, John and I had a lazy day around the Pool in the morning and then […]
We had another day trip planned, this time into Albufeira – the old town. This is probably the biggest seaside town, which has grown and grown. Pat had holidayed here 30 years ago and she didn’t recognise it! The old town is charming, but sadly the tourism demand and catering […]
Another day on the golf course – BORING! Not. Today we travelled to the Old Course, which was a short distance away. Frank Pennink designed parkland style layout is one of the oldest in the region and it was like being at Augusta, narrow trees surrounded by Pine trees with massive […]
Today we ventured out to Vilamoura Marine, it was another hot day – we managed to persuade pat to join us. Everything is catered to the English tourist, with Pub meals, full english breakfasts and all the premiership games televised. The marina itself was full with gorgeous yachts of all […]
John and I were playing golf at Vale do Lobo, the rest of the gang were going to the beach for the morning. It is another gorgeous day, all the family are still getting on well and there have been no fall outs. Vale do Lobo golf is a short […]
Another day in paradise, we had our re-scheduled tee off time at 9:20am at Quinta do Lago – Laryngal course. It was great having breakfast by the pool, before golf. For the first time we turned right out of the property – which was a first and once again it […]
Oops! John realised that it was Monday and we should have been playing golf at 9:20am. You know that you are having a good holiday when you don’t even know what day it is. Luckily we could re-schedule – so no dramas. As Jack was so into his golf we […]
Little Jack is mad about Crazy Golf and when he saw our golf clubs all he wanted to do was play Crazy Golf. So we promised him that we would take him to Crazy Golf, it was so exciting… When there are so many of you it takes a while […]
It was great to catch up with the family, it was a lazy day acclimatising and getting to know Jack and Sam. Shopping, washing, swimming, splashing, unpacking and hanging about. The villa is great – the bed was more comfortable than it appeared and the shower wasn’t as bad as […]
With the aid of a few glasses of Portuguese Red, we both had a good nights rest, in a very comfortable bed, we went for breakfast in our hotel. We loved everything about this hotel and it didn’t stop with the breakfast, which you could eat indoors or outdoors on the terrace. […]
