Hari 1
Whoopi! We are on our way!
25 Maret 2023, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 2 °C
So here we are, packed, tickets in hand. A kiss goodbye from our grandson Hendrix, and Joe drove us to the airport. Two weeks isn’t long-in our life but for Norah & Hendrix it is. We will miss them both!

I was able to catch up with a couple of my former colleagues, while waiting for our flight. Captain Bowser and First Officer Ruff were waiting to board a delayed flight and didn’t mind a picture. Clearly, Captain Bowser is the senior crew member with his stately throne, while First Officer Ruff must sit on the floor and field questions from the travelling public about the reason for the delay. They both look good in their dark uniforms, but I was surprised that neither wore the regulation hat. The airline ID is PALS and stands for Portuguese Air Line System. I hope the Captain is flying this leg because otherwise we might expect a Ruff landing.Baca selengkapnya

Lisbon Arrival
26 Maret 2023, Kanada ⋅ ☀️ 4 °C
We arrived in Lisbon pretty well on time, sailed thru passport control, luggage came off together in record time and with nothing to declare we were ready to meet up with Sofia to give us a lift to the apartment . The apartment is is centrally located, and the owner met us and gave us the $5 tour. She had set the table with wine, breads, cheese, honey and Pastiés de Nata (a delicious treat) The apartment is perfect and has everything you need.Baca selengkapnya

Lisbon walk-a-bout
26 Maret 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
We needed to get the a feel for the Bica district and also some provisions, so a Sunday stroll was in order. Most of our walk was either uphill or downhill. It seems rare to move on a level surface. After finding the Rossio train station we stopped for a coffee, looked over Rossio square and went back to the apartment. The temperature outside is 23 degrees so after having a bite to eat we enjoyed an evening walk down by the water. There is a pink street here, with restaurants and bars. Of course Dianne insists on a selfie to mark the occasion.Baca selengkapnya

Hari 3
Early morning train to Sintra
27 Maret 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C
Unlike a trip with a tour company, we had a modest breakfast this morning. We had coffee with toast, a banana, and a cereal bar. Out the door by 6:50 and only one false start as I returned to get another camera. We even made an earlier train than we anticipated leaving the station at 7:11 instead of 7:30. It is still dark at that time of the morning.
The attraction here is Peña Palace and a Moorish Castle located on forested hillsides that overlook Sintra and the surrounding area. The palace was finished in 1810. That makes it almost new in the host of palaces we have visited.Baca selengkapnya

Pelancong Don’t see many people. There are usually big crowds at this place.

Hari 3
Pena Palace
27 Maret 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Instead of takin the bus from the train station, we were enticed by a smooth talking tour guide to get a ride up the hill in the comfort of his car and listen to the history of Peña Palace. Just to make sure you’re paying attention, there is a quiz at the end. The bus cost is 7 euro and his informative and educational conveyance is only 10 euro.
We got underway almost immediately, stopping only to try and rope in another customer from the train station as there was one empty seat in the car. He talked non stop for the 12 minute journey covering history from the Muslim occupation of the Iberian Peninsula to King Ferdinand II and his actress second wife. We had a photo opportunity once when we stopped behind the bus we didn’t take. He rolled down my widow for an unobstructed view.
Dianne and I realized when we parted company that the bus ticket was round trip. We would have to walk back to town..Baca selengkapnya

Inside the Palace
27 Maret 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
It was a slow walk through the palace behind tour groups that would crowd shame us if we tried to pass.

Hari 3
Moorish Castle
27 Maret 2023, Portugal
This castle is on the walk back to Sintra and I thought I could give it a skip since there was still a lot of walking to do. Brave Dianne disagreed, saying we shouldn’t miss this opportunity. Ironically, the walk along the high walls on a narrow stone path with panoramic views of the area is more suitable to my sentiments than to hers. She gripped my hand with a vice like force with me reminding her to breathe as we made our way around the castle walls. Brave Dianne was visibly relieved to be back on the footpath to Sintra, but as she said. “We did it.”Baca selengkapnya
