We took a taxi to Cascais and clocked into our digs. What a complete disappointment. There was no reception and no breakfast. Anyhow, it was well located so we took a walk to the market and enjoyed a couple of local beers. The lady running the beer stall told us of a Portuguese live band fair with food and drink trucks down by the ocean that night. What a jol that turned out to be. A massive stage had been built and there were thousands of people milling around and enjoying the shows, some sitting on the beach. Great timing!
