Nosy, moi? If a gate is open surely it invites little peeks.
Especially if there’s a garden inside.
Of course some people are innately inquisitive!
And some just wonder if it’s worth climbing to the top of the hill.
If there’s a cafe opportunity, I like a peek before I decide.
It’s imperative to know what’s beneath the castle wall.
and even little ducks have to take a peek before they go under the bridge.

The garden also has the best gelato stand out side of Italy, my favourite was very dark chocolate with forest fruits, unforgettable! There are bars, restaurants and cafes everywhere you look, and being late in the season they are all keen to fill your tummy. We chose a fairly new one, Gilao Restaurante, for our first night. My choice of a simple salad was lovely, Lindys less so and the service was not good. The manager tried his best to make it up to us with a delicious and potent local liqueur, and a promise to do better if we returned.
We walked through the garden where the cobbles glisten in the light, these decorative paths are everywhere in Tavira and some of the other places we visited in the Algarve.
The river is lit at night and is really atmospheric, especially the Ponte Romano. It’s believed that the bridge originates from Roman times, but it was rebuilt in the 17th century after an earthquake.
