Amateur photog's online photo cache. All photos are original pics taken by author and her husband. This is not a place to see those awe inspiring Ansel Adams, these are ordinary subjects shot on a whim most of the time.
The last stop in this half-day trip to Sintra is in Cascais, a resort town near Lisbon famous for its sandy beaches. It was a brief stop mostly for photo ops. The beach area is beautiful and the coast is rugged and charming, but the weather chose that moment to be a little inhospitable - cold and windy - and I don't think any of us were dressed for the occasion. Still I got to say I got to see Cascais, right?
What marvelous photos you have here! It makes me wish I could return. We missed a lot of Portugal because we were on our way to Fatima, Avila and Lourdes. Thank you!!!!
I agree with the others...beautiful in any weather. I loved the sand dunes and the beaches, and everyone loves a lighthouse, right? Kay An Unfittie's Guide to Adventurous Travel
