The parents of Madeleine McCann have today moved out of the Portuguese holiday resort from where their daughter was abducted and set up home in a private property nearby.
It is now 60 days since their daughter disappeared, and the McCanns have now packed their belongings along with many thousands of letters and cards of support from around the world.
For the past two months, they have lived in one apartment while using a second one as an office to run the global search for Madeleine in the Algarve town of Pria da Luz
The move has been prompted by the start of holiday season at the resort and is also the first sign that life is moving on.
The McCanns, from Rothley in Leicestershire, have said they plan to stay in Portugal at least until the end of the summer and are “determined” to come back to the UK with their eldest child.

Dust if you must.
But wouldn’t it be better to paint a picture,
or write a letter, bake a cake, or plant a seed.
Ponder the difference between want and need.
Dust if you must.
But there is not much time,
with rivers to swim and mountains to climb!
Music to hear, and books to read,
friends to cherish and life to lead.
Dust if you must.
But the world’s out there with the sun in your eyes,
the wind in your hair, a flutter of snow, a shower of rain.
This day will not come round again.
Dust if you must.
But bear in mind, old age will come
and it’s not kind.
And when you go, and go you must,
you, yourself, will make more dust.
Remember, a house becomes a home
when you can write “I love you” on the furniture.
