In-The-Moment

Lisbon Wednesday

Today was a funfilled affair, starting with a zippy drive through Cascais Portugal ending up at a delicious lunch place (Bar Do Guincho) with a view overlooking a scenic and iconic surf spot. I enjoyed my first shrimp burger and sweetpotato fries and a cold brew. We watched 3 and 4 foot waves begin to turn in to 5 and 6 foot waves, and dozens of surfers lined up to take their crack at the fast moving breakers, which often broke left and right so two surfers could hit them.

Visited a World Heritage Site by UNESCO within the "Cultural Landscape of Sintra": Quinta de Regularei. It’s a palace and a chapel and an amazing park. The well is incredible, and the circular staircase here is a wonderful piece of architecture.
