We are at sea, and sometimes the sea has ideas of its own. Today we were to have landed at Algarve, in Portugal. The wind and the sea, however, did not cooperate, so our captain made the call to skip this port and head instead to our next stop at Leixoes, Portugal. We were to have tendered in, and nothing is worse than a super-rough ride in a tender! A sea day is always welcome.
Today at my stitch group, one of the ladies received a text asking about the power outages in Spain, Portugal, and France. Further research confirmed that lights are out, streetlights too, in Portugal, our next stop. At our port talk, it was apparent that the cruise director knew nothing of the power outages. Huge questions remain.
We will hear in the morning what the day holds. Whatever…it will be a grand adventure! Hoping to get into Porto, as there is much to see. Gotta get a pin in my map!
More news at eleven!!
