The flight and arrival at Porto


Our plane tonight was an Arbus A330-300.

So lots of carry-on baggage room!

We had interior seats but at least we had the aisle to get in and out easy

The couple to our left had a very young squawking baby and before we left the attendant moved us up one row to give the young family more room and as luck would have it we got an extra seat in the row of four to put some of our “stuff”

The flight was smooth and we  landed at 0845 local time (0145 at home) but couldn’t get off the plane for about 15 minutes as our gate wasn’t available 

Entry into the Eurozone was easy and shortly afterward we were on the metro to the old part of town where our Airbnb is. 

The area near our place is wonderful but as I write this I really just want to get into our place. We are anxiously waiting for our host to call us (Normal check in time is 3 PM and right now it is 12:30 and our host will let us in as soon as the place has been cleaned). Update.We were in by about 1 PM


When we got off the metro at “our” station earlier this is the first thing we saw.  Oh boy, this is a nice area.
