• Spain to Portugal

    September 18, 2017 in Portugal ⋅ 🌙 15 °C

    OK so journey was horrible lots of swell and wind on the nose 10-15mph despite forecast of North veering North west less than 10mph until around 5pm, also drizzling on and off. So my first impressions of Portugal as we arrived were not great we had to start slaloming to avoid pots as well. But we reached dry land and the marina guy was great helping us to moor showing us where to go in town and the town Viana do Castelo is pretty. We took a funicular (probably spelt wrong) up to the Basilica at Monte de Santa Luzia with stunning views. If you look really carefully Take Five's masts are just to starboard of the Tower block. We also wandered aimlessly in town so some random photos as well.Read more
