Our overnight sail was uneventful as we shared three hour on/off watches.  Mid-morning found us sailing around the cape to Cascais, a suburb of Lisbon.  We plan to anchor here by the marina and visit Lisbon by commuter train as much as we want!   The anchorage is large and fairly full with other transient cruisers.  After two anchoring attempts, we set the hook at 1100 and begin to settle into life at anchor again.  A quick trip ashore revealed a much more upscale town than we have visited in the past!

The first item Saturday morning was to hoist the anchor and depart Leixoes.  However we were met with a surprise:  the anchor was hooked to a harbor debris...a line from the harbor floor.  Down comes the dinghy so that Chris can cut the line from the anchor.  The first of many to come!  We sailed out of the harbor at 1000 into picture perfect weather but no wind!  At 1730, several schools of porpoises accompanied us for several hours.  Literally hundreds of them came from every direction to sail with us.  We tired of watching them before they tired of chasing us!  What great creatures!
