Cabo St. Vincent


This is the Lighthouse at Cabo St. Vincent which is the actual most southwest tip of Portugal. You can tour the historic site at certain hours or outside the lighthouse, there are merchants that sell figs, almonds and seaworthy sweaters. They also had oranges when we were there, they are in season now and delicious.

Or you can indulge in the "Letzte Bratwurst vor Amerika" which means the last hotdog before America at the one and only concession van. The Portuguese fishermen and merchants were enjoying an afternoon espresso while we had a quick lunch.


This is a view back towards the Cape Sagres Fort. We were there, now we are here!
