Time to take a break from the everyday routine, I decided to take a trip to Portugal. First stop, Faro, then a taxi to Olhao camping, where I spent a week to get over a flu, that had debilitated me since Christmas. I packed the panniers in our guest room at home, wondered whether I should really take this trip. Of course, the itchy feet syndrome took over and here I am.
