A Special Day

Sunday 28 January 2024

Today marks our 35th Wedding Anniversary. Dave has no idea what day of the week it is at the moment (having gone into full-on retirement mode), let alone the significance of this special date. Don’t worry he’s been reminded!


For our 30th Anniversary, 5 years ago, we were in Lisbon on a long weekend break in a city centre hotel. It felt rather posh to us from what I remember - and included luxurious bathrobes, slippers and a bottomless breakfast (including unlimited mini Pastel de Nata’s). We spent part of the day at the Maritime Museum, because he loves boats and museums so it was a no-brainer!




Strange that we’re back in Portugal for another milestone anniversary. Perhaps not so strange is that we have spent part of the day at another transport museum - this time the National Railway Museum in Entroncamento.



We love our little VW van and it’s already taken us to so many amazing places on this trip. It’s just as well that we have a strong marriage and get on so well together because it’s very ‘cosy’ in the van with limited living and storage space. How long do you reckon you could manage living with your partner in a useable space of about 9 cubic meters (approx 1.5m high, 1.75m wide & 3.5m long)?
