We've left the cold of Scotland behind (thankfully!) and are now embracing the sun and warmth of the Portuguese Algarve. We flew into Faro on the southern shore of Portugal and drove an hour along the Algarve to the little village of Praia da Luz. We're staying in a beautiful 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment at the Baia da Luz Resort, just a few blocks from the beach.
Come with us on a walk through Praia da Luz, stopping at the beach and malecon for brunch and then stopping at the Supermercado to pick up some groceries
. We'll show you some of our favorite places in Luz. Go to the pictures below to see our walk.
