Portimao...a lovely place, and friendly aire which was recommended to me, on by down most moments by another funster. There is a pub, restaurant, and bbq with music. Cheap as well. Friendly staff on the gate, helpful funsters, good location.
There is a better wild camping area, across from the aire, .............No good for you though .....with your size van............

My plans to move to Portimao have had to be put back again. It looks like I have another party to go to. It is a problem overhear, having a nice time, everyone is trying to do it. I am planning to return for Christmas and new year but many are saying I will miss out on all the fun hear. So much to do and not enough time to do it

Halloween party Monday then Portimao hear I come. Not many Motorhome fun members hear at Olhao camping but the next place could be different. The sun has come out again so now I can get a tan. Don't think I really need one.

Well finally decided that I will not leave hear until mid November as I have found so many nice people at this site. So the best thing to do is just take a day trip to my next location, when i finally get to make the trip. I am going to go to Portimao for the day tomorrow with some friends. We are all looking forward to the trip and it will give me a chance to see the access to the sites with my rig.

Hi Dogsense, keep us all informed of your progress and maybe we could meet up for a drink or dinner at some time or place.

Another change, off to Portimao (Portugal) today. Found three sites on a flying visit on Sunday, Two free and one a small charge. It seems to me that I do like to camp and not just park but I will try the free sites. The small charge site I am going to stay on say, I must have my truck connected to the van when I am on site as I have a 5th wheeler. I don't know the reason for this it could be planning or insurance regulation.

Probably something to do with Aires just allowing motor homes, not caravans.
Hope you enjoy Portemeo :)

Presently at a place called Alvor in Portugal. Yesterday I went to Sagres but hardly any vans at the place but it has nice veiws. I also went to Lagos but the place was too small and full anyway. It seems to me that this wild camping is for people that like being by themselves as the sites I have seen have no place to meet people if you wanted to. Tomorrow I am off to a wild camping spot over the water from Portimao. As it happens i probably will not talk to anyone as it's defnatly a wild camping site as there is nothing at the place uther than sand, dirt grass and water. It will give me a chance to talk to myself.
