Bullfighting
by Carmela71
I guess this would be a good chance for me to see a bullfight, as it is different to Spain, bulls do not get kill, even if I still do not enjoy much bullfights.
Another characteristic of this bullring is that there are apartments at the bullring…. Never seen before!
Historic Albufeira
by solopes
The crazy construction that disfigured Algarve, has (thanks God!) spared the central area of old Albufeira. Now, cleaned and organized for touristy exhibition, the central Albufeira looks good, and, for some minutes, allows us to forget the insanity of exploitation seeking for euros (or dollars, or... just money!) that grew around it.

these guys are on the beach reparing their fishing net
This is what happend when you ask the right direction!
This is a good example how nice and friendly the portuguese are!
"dogs everywhere....."
During our stay in the apartment we had a dog almost permanent in our apartment.
I don't think anyone owns a dog in Portugal I think all the dogs we saw, and believe me there where lots of them, where stray dogs.
The day we left Portugal I couldn't find "my dog" I was very disappointed, cause I wanted to say goodbye to this doggie.
We made a last walk along the beach and guess what......there he was, lying between some old English people who hibernate at the Algarve.
So that is where the dog was most of the day, I was satisfied, those people took good care of “my dog” :-)

I took this picture at the market place
