• Santiago de Compostela to Lisbon

    May 19 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

    Greg is on his way to Europe, in fact he arrives in Lisbon before I do.

    My journey today began with a walk to the Estación de Autobús, about two kilometres. I got on the bus there, which took me to Porto.

    In Porto I had to figure out how to get from the bus station on one side to the train station on the other side. A bit confusing but I made it.

    Once on the train it was quite relaxing. I had a coffee and pastry.

    There is a sign that tells our speed. The highest I saw was 200 km/h.

    Later: I arrived in Lisbon, found the hotel and Greg. It does seem strange to travel over 600 km in one day, or even to move so fast after walking. It has been over six weeks since I was in a motorized vehicle. 🚗 I guess I might get used to it eventually.

    I am looking forward to exploring Lisbon tomorrow.
