Us pandas know how to celebrate our birthday in style. We packed our bags and hopped on board a plane to sunny Portugal for a long weekend - in time for the hottest day of the year so far. Perfect. We would love to tell you all about it, but for legal reasons we can't. Feel free to search #pandamonium on twitter which will reveal some highlights. I can tell you that half of the team left their livers, voices and some dignity back in Portugal - but we did gain a mobile phone...
Here was the original itinery:
Thursday after work
- taxi to Stansted so bring everything you need with you on Thursday morning.
Friday
- Flight leaves at 6.30 so we’ll need to leave the hotel around 5.15am;
- Go to Vilamoura – drop bags, relax for a bit;
- Get some lunch in the harbour;
- Go on the catamaran from 2-5 with beer and wine;
- More drinks in the harbour;
- Head back to the hotel for some food;
- More drinks then probably get a cab around 10.30 to Monty’s in Vale de Lobo for some drinks.
Saturday
- Lazy morning, have breakfast at the hotel;
- Head to the waterpark for 1ish. We can take beer and wine with us;
- Have some fun;
- Go back to the hotel – tidy up, do a jaeger bomb or two and get back out there;
- Up to you all what we do Saturday but probably be around Vilamoura.
Sunday
- Very lazy morning;
- Very lazy lunch at BJ’s on the beach;
- Fly home;
- Taxi back into London.
If we sound like your shot of tequila, and you play as hard as you work, why not join our growing team? Who wouldn't want to be a panda?!
