This beautiful and fashionable lighthouse is located over the sea wall from the Cascais, Portugal marina. It is in splendid company, surrounded by elegant resort hotels on this tiny cove. We dinghied our way into this tiny inlet and were rewarded with a glimpse of a 10-inch jelly fish (note the short, fat tentacles.)

Carol is cooking spaghetti again...SURPRISE. Or maybe it's chicken this time.

Brendan was the first to see the dolphins...and got some GREAT video footage...and later porpoise too.

Brendan found that he could maximize his exposure on the flybridge...nice picture of the flag and solar panels, also.

We came upon a shoreline market where rows of fish, sliced open and splayed inside out, were drying on wooden structures on the sand...especially colorful with the contrasting hues of the flies and seagulls.

After a lovely sail down the coast and overnighter on the ocean, we arrived at the pristine seaside village of Nazare', Portugal. It has a lovely long beach lined with starched white buildings huddled up to the base of a steep hill. A funicular climbs to the top, the bottom of which we aimed for on our bicycles via the back streets of the town...and missed. There are many funiculars in Portugal, and we are still trying to find the entrance to one of them.
