Lisbon to Porto Covo

Arrival in Lisbon was so smooth and on schedule. But our back packs were slow to arrive at the baggage carousel, and it was a very long way from the plane to the baggage pickup. That put us late at the bus that could have taken us to Porto Covo directly. As a result, we had to take a train to Sete Rios to catch a different bus to Porto Covo. When we walked into our hotel there, we didn't have a room. Mac's Adventures changed hotels but didn't inform the clients; three other parties also had the same problem.

Our new hotel had the most interesting wood sculpture in the lobby. Blair will like it.

Over dinner we met a Polish couple who had moved to Andalusia. It sounds like a great place to visit.

Kingston to Lisbon

We left Kingston by bus at 12:30 and were in Terminal 4 at 4:20. After checking in we went to Plaza lounge to hangout, eat and drink. The food was okay and the wine was very nice. We had a nice chat with a couple of young girls who turned out to be ENT docs; not as young as we first thought.

Sunrise before Lisbon was spectacular.
