• Day 1, To Labruge

    May 17, 2024 in Portugal ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

    Day 1

    Today we left our place “The Lost Inn; Porto” about 7:45am. It was a mostly beautiful day, passing lighthouses and abandoned forts under sunshine mixed with occasional rain. Much of the time we were walking on boardwalks over the sand with the ocean on our left. Occasionally we were on traditional Portuguese cobblestone paths which are often white stones accented with black stone decoration (or the reverse). Being so close to the ocean, of course we had to eat seafood for lunch and dinner. Eighteen and a half miles and 43,000 steps later we arrived in Labruge about 4pm where we stayed at the Casa de Praia Guest House.

    Tomorrow we are off to Arcos.
