Portugal
In 1982 Portugal was a poor and politically unstable country


1st Visit

8 - 13 September 1982

Our traverse through Spain took us over the border to the Atlantic Ocean and the interesting city of Porto. There Braz & I discovered the wonders of Port; we had a blissful day visiting the caves. We then headed south briefly stopping at Esphinho and the capital Lisbon and finally arrived in the Algarve. In Lagos we were staggered at the violence of a local bull fight; several men were carried away after being mauled by athletic young bulls. We stayed in Sagres and visited the landmark of Cape Saint Vincent; Europe's most south-westerly point. Our grand Inter Rail 1982 tour then continued back to Spain.
