March 4, 2023,Nach Olhão zum Bacalhau
We are safely back in Fuseta and immediately after sunrise we start cycling.
We drive to Olhão first through the dry stream to Quinta de Marim, a nature park where we drop off Evi. Anna and I shop at the market in Olhão and collect them on the way back.
Above all, we bought Bacalhau, which is now allowed to …

February 11, 2023,Zum Bauernmarkt nach Olhão
On Saturdays there is always a farmer's market in Olhão. So we cycled there in a fresh wind via the Ecovia litoral, did some delicious shopping, enjoyed galão and churros, admired murals and azulejos.

The sunrise is also beautiful to watch from the roof terrace.

Ralph had already been out and got some charcoal, and after breakfast I bought fish in the Fuseta market hall. However, we couldn't find a convincing grill in town. We needed one, because that's the only thing we're missing from our apartment. But we wanted to go to the …

January 25, 2025,mal wieder nach Olhão
The rain stops in time. We get to the market day in Olhão dry on wet paths. And at Galão the sun is shining brightly again.
At the roundabout with the statue of the worker, around which the fish canning factories are located, a poster indicates that wages are also an issue in Portugal.

Probably our last day in Portugal, starting tomorrow we'll be heading home.

So this morning we cycled again to the wonderful fish market in Olhao. The prawns there are simply delicious, so we'll have them tonight for the finale.

Then we cycled back and to Fuseta a third time, this time for a swim on the beautiful sandy beach.
