Portimao, Portugal - small fishing village
Never heard of this small fishing port until today. Town was pretty quiet on a Sunday afternoon. This port is up river and not navigable by the big cruise ships. Did a stroll along the harbor, sipped on some sangria and beer with fellow residents and soaked in the sun. I attempted to organize a speed boat tour of local caves, but wind and surf too rough to do safely.
I don't know why, but I have always made great and lasting friendships with my nail & hair stylist people. Maybe because I see them regularly, we chit chat the whole appointment and share deep confidences quickly and with great respect, it's a safe zone! Stacy from Mauritius was that for me on the Odyssey . She was Spa Manager from the beginning in Belfast and took only two short vacation breaks over the two years.

I have wanted to see the famed Singapore Changi Airport for years to see the world's largest indoor waterfall. Turns out the waterfall is in a part of the airport, outside the Departure Terminals, so I still have yet to see it! The Terminal does have some interesting architecture and houses a huge shopping mall, with some very high end stores and Christmas decorations are up everywhere, the day after Halloween ( which sadly, they don't celebrate here ).
