Saturday 18 Sept Duoro Valley

 Sad to leave 




my beautiful natural lake behind at Sanabria 

Moved to a  campsite only a year old on the hillside over looking the Duoro Valley 

It had a swimming pool and restaurant and brand new ( cold) showers . We walked down to the dam below and watched a cruise ship navigate one of the locks, taken by two men playing with a baby  near the rails . Friendly retired  motorhomer called Barry from Sheffield was staying there too , he  lives near Lisbon with his Portuguese wife  and  visited us Saturday evening 




He is a p/ t  TEFL teacher and gave us lots of helpful tips re where to camp next.

 Swimming pool dangerously slippy , not cleaned regularly enough to keep algae at bay. Very friendly receptionist Anna who spoke excellent English was very helpful , give this woman a pay rise , she seemed to be doing everything.
