Portugal Tour Feb 1-3

I think everybody agrees this was a great Tour. Both social and sportive.
We started on Friday by waking up at 3am to take our flight to Porto. The morning was spent visiting the town by bus and a short walking in the center, ending with a visit to one of the famous Porto wine cellars.
Lunch was on a boat that took us up and down the river while with had the local speciality "Francesinha". After lunch we travelled to Santarem for dinner a good sleeping (well... for some).
  


Saturday morning we went to Caldas to play the local club. In the afternoon, lunch and visit Nazaré the place where the now famous biggest wave surfed happened. Another short trip to Óbidos where we could taste the local "ginjinha" (no injuries). Back to Santarém for another great dinner.
Sunday morning we played our hosts, the Santarém Rugby Club, under a superb blue sky. Lunch with our hosts and back to Porto for the flight to Luxembourg.
A great weekend.
