We set off early morning in the dark and the
fog, but the weather soon improved, cold but blue skies. Saw dolphins
leaping out of the water off the starboard bow much to Becs
delight. Arrived in pleasant warm sunshine to what turned out to be an
equally pleasant town of Povoa de Varzim. we did the usual scout
around for a restaurant Ade and Becs treated us to a banquet. Adrian will
be forever dissappointed that the did not order the 'steak' for two at 15 Euros
it could easily have fed all 4 of us.
We bade our farewells and set off for
Porto. All the pilot books said that Porto was an impossible place to
enter and moor up so we had earlier decided not to go there. However, a
conversation with the lady opposite who'd been there many times soon changed our
minds.
