Dag 17
Sintra, suburb if Lisbon
17 mei 2023, Portugal ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
Lovely day, we were driven to Sintra, a fairytale town! Can’t a
Rogue with this title. Several palaces, built to represent all the different architectural styles evident in late 18-19 c. The prince consort appeared to have a lot of time on his hands🤣. I think he might just have had problems deciding on a particular style and just went for a bit of everything! (I sympathise) Either that or his wife just wanted to keep him busy! Anyhow, the result was impressive.
I will let the photos do the talking.
We were amazed at how many plants were common to NZ.Meer informatie

Belem
18 mei 2023, Portugal ⋅ 🌬 19 °C
Travelled to Belem yesterday! Very energetic day, walked 10kms attempted to take trams etc with limited success.
Busy day in Belem.
Visited Jeronimus Monastery, amazing what you can build if you slap a sizeable tax on imports! This was followed by the monument to the navigators, the coach museum and lastly Cook Lisbon. Very well run, nice group, interesting food = enjoyable time. 👍Meer informatie

Lisbon, last day.Belem trip am
19 mei 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
Great morning. Set off at 0930, on TT arranged bike tour. Great guide called Vincent. Half French and half English! Great trip! I was a bit dubious about riding through Lisbon in the traffic, but it was great. Back to Belem again, but this time sailing along dodging traffic, and visiting the same areas but doing the outdoors version. Stopped off at a restaurant to have a ‘pastel de natal or Portuguese egg custards. According to Vincent, the nuns used egg whites to stiffen their ‘habits’ as you do, and had lots of egg yolk to use up!
The pastel was perfect, so really technically, I don’t need to try anymore🤣Temp about 28c. Nice breeze👍. Shopping & laundry pm.
Today’s pics to follow. Love!Meer informatie

Left Lisbon in rental van with Euan at the helm, and David navigating. Had a slight detour around the motorway then on to Tomar. Drive off 120km road to a wrecked country road, past sone cork & eucalyptus forest. Found a castle Almouruol the bank of the Tagus. Kayaks on the river👍

Alveira - Porto
21 mei 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C
Great afternoon in Alveria, boat trip was interesting & restful. Our grand entrance into sporting was made very memorable but the fact that there was a three day maritime
festival on, and huge crowds as we tried to find our way to the hotel & parking building. Naturally the parking place is now a building site etc ! Eventually left the car by a bank of large rubbish containers and walked the bags to the hotel. Euan & David then rescued the van and found the parking building!
Great dinner and a walk to the waterfront at sunset.Meer informatie

Side trip to Aveiro, the Venice of Portugal.
Great motorway to Aveiro. Stopped off for Desert lunch☺️, then took boat along the salt water canals around the city. Very relaxing.
We comment on how polite everyone in the tourist sector is. Even it you don’t want something and say no they say thank you!Meer informatie

Pousada Belmonte Conventio
21 mei 2023, Portugal ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
Just recovering from Degustation Dinner last night! Probably shouldn’t have had the humungous toasted cheese and ham toasted sandwiches and pastries for lunch in Tomar. Lesson learnt🤣. Pousada is an amazing old convent that has had the hotel built around it. Very beautifully done. Not sure why all the rooms are named after monks!!! If it was a convent. More investigation into the lives of the inhabitants required! Survived death by slow degustation. The guys were flagging so I had to ask the wait staff to hurry it along. We finished at 11pm in hurry mode!Meer informatie
