snowbirds 26

Arrived at a lovely village called Rugles, free Aires including free EHU and public toilets, today is 14 degrees but still got a chilled wind, will probably stay here a couple of days, give Roxy a break, then heading down to Vivonne for the Saturday market
 
Arrived at Chateau Le Archer, one of our favourite Aires, can't believe how empty it is, this place is normally rammed, I am beginning to wonder if a lot of Motorhomes are staying at home this Easter, due to the high fuel prices, the weather is overcast and 15 degrees but it has given into the 20s over the weekend and next week, so we will probably anchor down here and finally get out chairs out 😎🍺
 
sat at pomarao for a final visit this year went out to maria’s on thursday but called into cafe docais today that’s the lower bar that was flooded to a depth of 5 ft in february the whole valley had 9.5 mts flooded pleased to say the lovely young couple that had just taken it over got it up and running for easter so pleased for them
 
We are at an old favourite la Josea do mondego beautiful free aire with ehu and toilet block with the best showers , it’s the village festival weekend today flowers music fireworks etc tomorrow is the food festival €8 for a souvenir plate and you just take it up to all the stalls for a refill could get messy
