A week in the Algarve with the family

Every year I take my family on holiday and every year they complain. This is despite the fact that I always pick somewhere with all of their interests at heart! I never consider what I would like to do – yet every single year I have chosen the wrong place! This year I decided to take a completely different tack, and I chose to find somewhere that would suit me down to the ground, since they always complain, they might as well be complaining somewhere that I like!

Because I always tried to please everyone else, we hadn’t gone anywhere that was up my street in recent years, and I really had to rack my brain to come up with somewhere that we had been that I had really liked, and then I remembered going to the Algarve when the children were just little. They hadn’t been old enough to complain then!

I had a look around online, and I came across some Algarve flights which wouldn’t break the bank. I decided on a whim to just go ahead and book them before anybody could talk me out of it!

When we arrived at Faro both of my children were already complaining, but as we got on our transfer and the kids saw the views
of the coastline as we drove along, they soon started to pipe down. The place was as beautiful as I remember it, and all I could do was to hope that the golf courses were as good as they always had been!
