Arrived at Nazaré about 14.30 just ahead of Ruth and Andy, who I helped direct to a berth and tie up for a change. We plugged in shore power and had a cup of tea—there was no gas coming through so another problem to be solved. I’ll swear that ‘Piano’ knows when she can make trouble! After a pleasant sail ! Malcolm has been helped by Andy to try and solve the cause but has emailed Rustlers for their ideas. We may have news tomorrow ? Finally went for a walk along the beach .I made stroganoff on the camping gas burner phew a good job that I packed it ! I cooked Stroganoffand Ruth did the rice we ate on deck aboard Valzian II after prolonged aperateefs.
We took a bus to Batalha to visit the monastery where Queen Phillipa of Lancaster and her sons amongst whom Henry the Navigator were buried. A very impressive decorated Perpendicular Gothic building. Then went again by bus to Alcobaςa which was not as impressive ! We did however find a post-box ! Plus it was raining so we were not happy bunnies just pleased to get home to be warm and dry. We did have a great tea with cake and chocolate before we left. Also saw great waves breaking on the shore back at Nazaré so took pictures until the battery ran out.
