Urban Beach

We decided to shake up our plans and head to a beach outside of Lisbon today. We woke up late, checked out, and walked down to the train station. 

We stopped at Belém and saw the Padrão dos Descobrimentos Memorial dedicated to all the explorers. Then we took the train to Cascais and headed to the beach (about 30 min ride). It was a bit windy, but we had lunch, enjoyed drinks and the boys had some beach time. Now we’re on our way back to Lisbon to catch our flight to Sevilla. A successful end to the Portuguese leg of our trip. I definitely want to come back and have more time to just grab a coffee or beer in each kiosk in the park and just relax. Next time!
