News from Kluut on the west coast of Portugal

We left Lisbon leaving the April 25th bridge humming behind us.

We decided to get a new  telephone number as it works out cheaper for us to text and call the UK.  Unfortunately you will pay when you call us. Sorry about that. Hope you will  still call though on....  00351 933 124 300  Please pass on this number to anyone who wants to call. Thanks.

 

 

Our next stop was Sesimbra.  Penny had asked us to call here as she remembered the strange fish being landed at the harbour there - particularly the deep-sea cat fish with their strange green eyes.  We didn't see any of them but enjoyed visiting another new Portuguese village.

From there we followed the coast south and called in at SinesHere we anchored just off the beach for one night.  The weather is sunny but coolish and the Atlantic is definitely too cold for a swim!  

 

From here we sailed to the southern tip of Portugal, and cheered as we rounded Cabo de Sao Vicente.

Now on to the Algarve. I hope the sea will be warm enough for a swim by then. Keep typing your news. We love to hear from you all whenever we are able to get to an internet café.

Love from two of the world's greatest navigators -

and Philippa!!
