Well, for a few days, it's back to just Deb and myself here on Morpheus. Kim and Mike are back home and already busy in the "real world", while Bob is off doing a bit of sightseeing for a couple days.
We can't thank these guys enough for basically taking a month out of their busy lives to jump on-board and help deliver Morpheus safely across the Atlantic Ocean to Europe. It was a fantastic journey with a great and compatible group that enjoyed the adventure. Thanks guys!!
We have been busy here in Cascais. There is plenty to see and do. It is definitely a small vacation beach town. Lots of shops, cafes, and restaurants. While not touring, or eating, we've managed to install a "back up" battery charger that is compatible with European shore power. We have also taken advantage of the fact that we are in a slip with access to fresh water (yes!), there has been a bit of house cleaning going on as well.
Clearly, I have enjoyed the availability of a stand in blogger to keep
things up to date and interesting. Mike loves to share the experience
and does so while entertaining. Perhaps I should hire him to return and
document the next few months??
I don't think I've posted much since the day we arrived, so to catch up a bit I think I'll just let a few pictures talk for themselves below.
These should provide a decent idea of what the last days on the water, and the past few here in Cascais have been like...
