Matasinhos

Train to Porto and then little local Metro out to Matasinhos.

Matasinhos is a beach village and with the gorgeous weather everyone was out and about lolling on the sand, the young groovers looked  like they were all posing for photo shoots.....with selfie-stick in hand anything goes....the Portuguese pout has to be seen to be believed!  

Checked into our hotel, 3 mins from the beach and all was going well until we were shown our room downstairs....uh-oh. Hotel was full so we toughed it out....Metro rumbling past until 1am, a short interlude and then the Metro started at 5am....3 metres from our cellar wall. I had to not think about earthquakes. Oh and for good measure it was student graduation night so lots of stragglers singing on their way home in the early hours.  All part of the travel experience!

Forecast for the next few days looks like cooler weather which is great for our walking, not so great is the showers forecast. We shall cope with what the day brings. Looking forward to getting started.
