[urOZm8]

hey guys im in lisboa portugal and are heading to the beaches and bars (hopefully babes too) of lagos the next few days. anyone know of a good place to stay? hoping to party it up a bit so a social place The pousada is like fully booked like one week in advance so its out of the question...
anybody stayed in these hostels: http://www.bugeurope.com/reviews/Portugal/.../Algarve/Lagos/
I think I might go with the 'casa amarela' listed on tpunk.

hey there, i was just in lagos 2 weeks ago. i didnºt have a place booked but just showed up on the bus, and there was a lady greeting people as you got off asking if you needed a place to stay. i ended up going with her and it was truly legitimate and great! her name is lucinda. the place is right in the center across from the post office with an amazing view of the ocean! it was 17 euro a night. so if you are the type who can just show up places without knowing for sure where you are staying, i would say do this for lagos and if you donºt meet her, maybe someone else or there are loads of places to stay and youºll be fine. but anyplace you stay in lagos would be a pretty good location probably because it the inner city pedestrian area is pretty small.
have fun! enjoy the beach, the cheap drinks and the food!!!!!!!!!!! i ate loads of incredible food while i was there!

take care,
lauren

ps take a boat ride out to the grottos. there are people all along the beach offering them, and it was definitely worth it!

hi again. unfortunately, i am back in the US ......I had to leave Shane and the couple others we were with last week to head back into Spain, then Portugal to come home, and those lucky ducks headed down to Marrakesh to trek out into the desert for a few days with a guide. I am sooooooooo jealous and sad that I missed out and am home! Anyway, hope Lagos is working out for you. Do you have Shane's email because if not, I could give it to you. Ok, bye for now.

Hey u2!

I got shanes email before leaving san seb but he had already left morocco, bugger! Im in marakech and will probably do a camel safari once we have driven out there. Lagos was cool but felt like being in britain!
hope all is good back home, stay in touch!
