I missed visiting Monchique while I was in Algarve, and now after seeing your page I'm so sorry I missed it! Great page! | Bwana_Brown Tue Apr 27, 2004 21:38 UTC
Thanks for the tips and photos! That BBQ peri-peri chicken on the road up Foia mountain sounds very inviting! I will be there in two weeks time to check it out! | freya_heaven Mon Mar 22, 2004 18:36 UTC
We walked all the way up to the old monastery in Monchique to find it had been closed off and taken over by Gypsies. Nice Page (~_~) |
