Beach day. Kona.



And these warm freshly baked cinnamon rolls are wonderful each day. I’ve moved up from one to two. Mind you others take a full dinner plate full. Can’t blame ‘em. Think warm, soft and slightly less sweet Cinnabon.

I don’t like anywhere at the height of summer except if it is Antarctica or the Orkney islands

I definitely feel the IC Lisbon is worth it but then I am a Diamond Ambassador with annual lounge access. The lounge is really good with great staff.
A bit out of the prime tourist areas. The hop on hop off bus terminal is just a short walk away. I like to stroll down to the harbourfront which is in he thick of things. Only drawback for me is Lisbon is quite hilly so not easily accessible by me.
My report on the IC Lisbon and Lisbon in 2023 begins here and on to pages 10 and 11.

Post in thread 'Egg tarts and Flowers. Portugal plus Chelsea.'

From here it was straight to the IC arriving just after 1330 and again our room was ready plus we had been granted club access.
I then had to drive the car back to the nearest depot which was just 1 Km away. But nothing where google maps said it was. Finally stopped at a Department Store loading bay. The 3rd fellow called spoke English and the depot is in an underground car park with absolutely no signage. Finally got there and no problems from then.

I now had to walk back through a park to the IC. Always laugh to myself when I see displays of lantana...
