Weather Report..................

We've decided to come north in Portugal so get away from rhe rain, I think we probablyover did the rain dancing for Paul, we're up at Evora and fingers crossed we can do the sights tomorrow, without rain. Monsaraz was good today, the view was a little misty but still spectacular.20220325_145326.jpg
 
We had a lovely cycle into La Rochelle and had lunch great to sit and watch the world go past and watch the sights 😛

Looking at your photos you might be camping at the free marina behind the shops.

The first time we stayed there it was perfect, until about three in the morning when the bin men arrived. Then all hell let loose until every single single bin was thoroughly emptied.

I hope you've avoided bin day. :eek:
 
After a cold night it's going to be another dry day in East Sussex, with a light breeze and 16° high. :)
 
Beautiful spring morning.
Gentle southeast breeze drying the laundry.
Breakfast cooked and ate on the terrace.
All organised to welcome our visitors.
Hope it's the same for the Gipsy market tomorrow.
I hope all goes well for the gypsy market tomorrow.
Have you to knock them up in the morning after the night out tonight.
We're parked up at ghe barragem de nisa, lovely and quiet in the middle of nowhere.
14 degrees out side.
 
After a cool and muggy start to Mothers Day, our hard working mums can be reassured that it'll improve by late morning and turn into a lovely day by lunchtime, with a high of 13°.

They are worth it. 😍

After a chilly start, we'll have a lovely day until about 4.00pm when we should begin to see a drop much needed rain. (y)

Have they still got the graveyard of burnt out cars there? From the fire that broke out during a concert.?
Spooky.!.

Rog and Co ?
...
Cold start and easterly winds yesterday. Spoilt the gipsy market.


Our motorhome guests were disappointed.
We got take aways from the Piri piri Chicken bbq. and planned to eat indoors at The Hovel.
The wind dropped, Sun shone and we had a 5 hour lunch on the terrace.
Lots of Wrinkly giggles and gossip.
Many glasses raised to " Absent Fiends ".
They lurched off into the sunset and we hope they managed to find their vans...
Would know more after a farewell breakfast at the Bakery.
Cold, gray and gloomy, this morning..
More drizzle forecast.

I'm pleased it all worked out in the end, mind you they are wildcamper members, they're expectations are reasonably low.
A few drinks and some food and they're anyones.
Don't forget to get them to have the toasties that should round off the gastronomic weekend.
Stay safe
Ps
There's no sign of any party here, we've had a couple of days here, very peaceful, off bimbling north today.

After an overcast and cold start, the day has brightened, but not for long as it'll rain later.
