Picturesque Portugal - Algarve - Faro

My 46th country in my 46th year of life.  Portugal was one of the only western country in Europe I had not visited and I am happy that I have now seen.  I spent about 2 weeks there and I truly enjoyed it.  I spent about a week in southern area called Algarve. 

I spent one evening and half a day in Faro. A small town in the middle of the Algarve.  I stayed at Hotel Alfonso III  - a 3-star hotel but clean, easy 5 minute walk to town, safe - breakfast alright.  Free parking on the street.

There is not a lot to see in Faro - a day maximum you can do it.  There are some boat trips off from Faro. Walking to the top of the cathedral gives a nice 360 views of the small port town.
