April at the Apartment

It's April 2017 and apartment co-owner Dave is enjoying an owner's renovation week in Praia da Rocha. Renovations include a glass shower door, moving the fridge and microwave to improve kitchen counter space and build in a broom cupboard.

The weather this month of the year is absolutely stunning - temperatures by day of about 25 c and nicely cooler by night. T-shirt and beach weather with a long sleeve top by night.. although all the restaurants are cosy and warm so you could live in casual short-sleeves.

Sangria here is the best

Lamb chops and vegetables for Euro 10,50

A new shower door has now been installed

A morning walk or run along the promenade is spectacular

Dave in the tunnel through the Rock Praia da Rocha is named after - right outside the Apartment

Stunning views on a run along the promenade
