What can I say...except that the sun has been shining every day! It's also very hot with temperatures in the mid to high 30's for the last week. Bottles of water are flying off the supermarket shelves and the best place to be is at the beach so that you can jump into the sea to cool off! 
There is normally a gentle sea breeze along the Algarve coast which actually makes even the hottest days quite bearable - just as well as rumour has it that we are heading for a long hot summer with heatwaves forecast.
