It's April 2017 and apartment co-owner Dave is enjoying an owner's renovation week in Praia da Rocha. Renovations include a glass shower door, moving the fridge and microwave to improve kitchen counter space and build in a broom cupboard.
The weather this month of the year is absolutely stunning - temperatures by day of about 25 c and nicely cooler by night. T-shirt and beach weather with a long sleeve top by night.. although all the restaurants are cosy and warm so you could live in casual short-sleeves.

Sangria here is the best |

A new shower door has now been installed |
A morning walk or run along the promenade is spectacular |
