1430. Hiking on West

Tuesday, January 01, 2013
Mexilhoeira Grande, Algarve, Portugal
Day 175
4 hrs, 10 .1 kms
Day Totals: 16 hrs, 25.1 kms

I'm following the highway, kind of noisy, but still a serene walk. Next town up the road, off to the side and up a ridge is the full size town of Mexilhoeira Grande, with your traditional winding alleys that lead to simple white church with gray stone trim...

Folks are friendlier here that the villages near The End of the World. Some boys even ask me to play a song for them...

On down the road I strum in another village that turns out to be just a suburb of Mexilhoeira... and then, as dusk approaches, I reach Portimao where I wander a little more before heading on back to Lagos for the night.
