        @Giles what are you eating on the boat during the journey thus far? are you shopping markets at each stop? eating at restaurants? scrambled eggs? canned tuna? Fresh Orca?

          Eat at restaurants when we can or if they look good. We have a very decent galley. See below.

          Breakfasts are usually fruit, yoghurt, muesli, toast cheese, meats....Lunch, a subset of the brekkie. Dinner is salad or pasta of some sort. Overnight stuff is chocolate, chocolate, nuts and more chocolate....

                            Most of the buildings on the south bank of the River Tagus, opposite Lisbon, are now derelict, I am assuming victims of containerisation. What a great place for a photo shoot...@Alex ....

                                      @Giles Will you be anywhere near where people are surfing. I know it’s not the time of year for the giant waves,but still might be some great surfing to watch.
