8-Sep-2041501AveiroRoadside CampingDrive to Aveiro. Very Foggy due to forest fires. Cleared later in the mornng when the wind direction changed. Could see the forest fires from across the lagoon.

Parked up on the main road, next to a few other campervans. Love the flexibility in Portugal. No parking fees. Campers Welcomed openly.

Decided not to use a campsite as tomorrow we will drive to Lisbon - via Nazare and then get a campsite in Lisbon.

Will also do Sintra palace and Cabo-da-Roca drive from Lisbon
