Arrábida

“…It's no fun being an illegal alien…”
(Genesis)

                                      Waterfall at Quinta de Alcube

I have this music stuck in my head since yesterday. Actually, it’s how I fell: an illegal alien. Hope I can get back to normal one of this days.

As part of the project “Go out to avoid stay at home” I spent Sunday at Serra da Arrábida. I have been there many many years ago and I can only remember Setubal, the road along the coast and Portinho da Arrábida. The rest of the places were quite new for me.

We started the day getting lost somewhere along the road N10. Worst of all, we lost ourselves more than once. Thanks to Sara, who swallowed a compass when she was young, we managed to find the lost path.

The journey began at Quinta de Alcube. We visited a small waterfall and then the farm itself, where we tasted their 14º wine.

                                The poor chef left alone in the kitchen

Lunch time. We pointed to Setubal then took the road to Sesimbra and stopped in a shadowed place near Galápos beach. The smell of the cheese attracted two visitors, but they were not friendly, they didn’t come close.

                                    Time to play hide and seek

After lunch we went to Portinho da Arrábida but is was so crowded we turned back and gave up visiting it.

Next and last step was Cabo Espichel. We spent the rest of the afternoon there before returning to Lisboa.

While there we witnessed a performance of a new game called suicidal yoga.
That’s all for today.
