Portugal for our Honeymoon
Posted on 14. Jul, 2010 by admin.
My girlfriend and I were having a lot of trouble finding somewhere to go for our impending honeymoon, and it was becoming somewhat of a sore point. As is fairly traditional and not uncommon, I wanted to go somewhere luxurious and hot for our honeymoon, but my wife had a real issue with insects. No matter where I suggested, she would tell me that such and such an insect would be in that particular location and she would be terrified the whole time that we would be there. I was on the verge of telling her that it might be best if we go to different places for our honeymoon when we actually found somewhere that we both thought looked great.
A brochure had come through the post that morning for Mediterranean breaks, and there was a great place called Faro, in Portugal. Now because Portugal is in Europe, my girlfriend thought that there wouldn’t be any nasty insects. I think that she based this assumption on her one trip to Normandy about five years ago, but I wasn’t about to start arguing with her. Portugal was a great location and it was as hot as you could possibly hope for during the summer months. On top of that there were some fantastic hotels which would be right up our alley. I had a look online and I was amazed to find some pretty cheap flights to Faro. The cheaper it was to get there, the more we would be able to spend on accommodation, so this place looked perfect to both of us.
I made sure I bought the tickets before she did a search for moths and Portugal on the internet!
