Our lunch stop was Nazare – famous for monster wave surfing in the northern hemisphere winter – a plesant fishing town with a relaxed feel and lots of white washed buildings and a wide golden beach that was being readied for a beach soccer competition – who knew that was a thing!


We took a little funicular up the hill after lunch – the tiles mosaic in the little station was a really nice modern take on traditional portugese motifs.


Portugal – probably the only place in the world where sardines (in all their forms including tinned) are a souvenir!
