Alvor, Portugal, Sat 28 June 08

We had agreed on another morning walk on the beach but with a swim this time. I really struggled to get out of bed after the cocktails from the night before and I wasn't the only one; only Janette & Neil managed to meet me at 8am. The water was so cold I knew it was going to be tough getting in so Janette & I just ran and dove straight in. Freezing but very refreshing.

My muscles were pretty sore from the beach walks and capoeira so I was very happy to have a full body massage at the hotel. It felt great.

At midday Neal had us booked in for some jet skiing. It was so much fun! My first ride was on my own and I must admit I was a little nervous, but I soon got the hang of it and I was zooming along.

I went out with Janette another time as she was a little worried bout going out on her own but she did really well - till our jet ski stalled and we had to try and get it going again, took us ages, I was starting to worry we'd need to be rescued! Bevan, Chris and Chayter all managed to fall off their jetskis, with Chris providing the most spectacular, flying a good few feet when he hit a wave going around a corner.

It was our last night so we all headed out for our final group dinner. It was a great night with good laughs and more yummy red wine. Back at the hotel we chilled in the hotel garden for a night of chatting and games.

We flew out early the next morning. It was such a great weekend!
