Day 8: February 21, 2020
Bom dia Lisboa!
Another sunny day in Portugal! This morning we have a beautiful excursion outside Lisbon.
Same as yesterday, our local guide Isabel was explaining lots of things about the culture, the countryside, the former royal family, how people live today, etc.
Our first stop was the city of SINTRA! Great views, stunning castles and nice hike around the town. After trying some ´queijadas´, we continued to the Cabo de Roca, the westernmost point of continental Europe! Look at the scenery and the cliffs facing the ocean!
Still one more city to visit, and that was CASCAIS! And yes! we had free time to chill out in the beach, try the best ice cream ever and some really good seafood! We would stay here forever!
On the way back to Lisbon, we stop before reaching the city centre, to travel by TRAM! what an adventure!
But the day wasn´t over yet. We had the chance to see FADO show this evening and understood the meaning of ´Saudade¨(Nostalgic). We actually like the music more than we thought!
Finally, well deserved buffet dinner!
Time for packing up! Boa Noite!
