• October 14 Cascais

    October 14, 2025 in Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

    Fun day in Cascais. Charming town on the Mediterranean Sea. Walked 19,000 steps around the town, down to the Grotto, and stopped for lunch at a small spot overlooking the sea.

    Madeline noted a phone shop so I popped in and bought a magnetic charger & case - only 35 euros. Seems to be working really well.

    Rather than take the train from Cascais, we walked east 3 more stations and caught it at Sao Pedro do Estoril. Had to stand up for 2 stops then eventually got seats. Lots of young people but no one got up.

    Wandered back home, and had a light dinner of salad toast & cheese. Total steps 19,593. 12.1 K

    Good News - Rentalgest, the management company for our AirBnB in Lagos emailed to say they'd reimburse us $400. Needless to say we were delighted.
