Back on the boat.
14 September 2012 | Povoa de Varzim
We had a good journey the next day and stopped overnight at St Jean d' Angely near Cognac where we stopped at a reasonable hotel and had a very good meal, Salad Nicoise, Duck and Trio of Strawberry Desserts.
The next day we pushed on through Spain to Portugal arriving at 2030 after managing to avoid the new automated toll roads (which was not easy) as we didn't want to give our credit card details to the charging machine, the alternative is to be photographed on the overhead camera system and then pay at the Post Office (didn't fancy that either!) We heard some nightmare stories of the new toll system when we were in Lagos.
There was rain in the mountains on the border but it cleared as we drove down the A7 and in Povoa it was hot and humid so as we were tired we went out to a local restaurant for spare ribs before crashing out.
