28th August

Today was our last day off before we went home, we decided we would go into Penafiel for a few bits. We didn't really fancy spending more money on a taxi so Lee came up with the idea of walking, in the car it only takes 5-10 minutes so we thought it wouldn't take us long.

We set off walking through our village, and then came onto the main road (which is more like a motorway) we followed the dirt track which was next to the road as we thought it would take us directly into Penafiel. We walked and walked until we came across a little forest, we wasn't too sure if we should walk through it, I was a bit worried about the snakes and other creatures that I thought would be in there, but we walked through it anyway and came out alive so that was quite good lol.

After around an hour of walking we finally reached our destination, we headed straight for our favourite cafe (which happens to have really good WIFI) the one where our work. Friend Javier first took us. We wasted a bit of time in here until the shops reopened.

We visited the bank so we could withdraw our last bit of money, and then headed for the supermarket so we could buy a few presents. We got Santos, our taxi driver and Albilio, our work friend who drives us the castle every morning a few cans of beer, we have been trying to ask then for a few days what they liked, but proved to be quite difficult ad they didn't really know what we were going on about. We also bought the castle a really big chocolate cake :)smile

We headed back home and started to make our favourite dish, mediterranean vegetables and garlic chicken :)smile We washed the pots and headed for bed, ready for our last few days in work.
