Cascais & Sintra on the Atlantic.

After a great breakfast, we went west to the coast. Beautiful weather, bit windy but nice sunshine. Toured around the seaside village of Cascais then on to Sintra. Scheduled to visit the Pena Palace but they had too much damage from the heavy rains and winds they had this past weekend. Some went to tour another palace, but we took a Tak Tak ride to see the town from different views. Enjoyed an outside lunch and time to walk and taste some Ginja (sour cherry liqueur) served in chocolate cups. Cheers! After back at hotel, we returned the car rental then enjoyed some tasty beverages, cheese and crackers.
Tuesday morning we head north to the Douro River with a stop in Tomar.Read more
