    Cascais Portugal

    July 22, 2024 in Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 28 °C

    We are nearing the end of our trip! Definitely feeling it. We have covered quite a bit of ground, languages, finding our way on more than one continent. It looks easier than it is, but traveling and touring is definitely not always easy. I broke it up into two trains of thought ….touring is work, vacation is sitting with your feet up in some resort. While I have never done the latter I feel like I might need it now! Haha!
    We just walked around Cascais today and did a little souvenir shopping for the boys. Cascais is definitely more of an “uppity” area and I actually heard a lot of English South African accents all around. It really does have a Cape Town vibe.
    Living in Washington and Oregon for the last 15 years, we are just not used to the heat. We are definitely slowing down, but tomorrow is another day and we are actually heading back to Lisbon and the airport area! Which means…we are one step closer to coming home!
