Itinerary for Portugal, Morocco, and Spain

Careful readers will note that I have scheduled only one or two things per day. I am no longer 20 years old so need to build in down time plus I know I will find things I want to do once I arrive.   Over the years I have learned that if I do not build in down time, I am more likely to get a cold or to twist an ankle, fall, or some other such calamity which I have experienced in past travels.

My flight on BA leaves San Diego in the evening of September 1st. I arrive in London for a short layover and then on to Lisbon, arriving at 2330 which means I will be getting to the hotel early morning.

Sept 3 - 6 I will be staying at the Inspira Santa Marta Hotel and Spa moving to the Intercontinental on the 6th for two days prior to embarking on Wind Surf.
