Dream Plan Do Travel

Dream Plan Do Travel "Collect moments, not things". Our new motto as we venture in our RV to experience Canada and the United States.

There are many places to see and things to experience. We are pursuing our dreams and 'hitting the open road" to places yet to be discovered.

While in the Algarve, we took a drive from Albufeira to Alte. It was such a pretty village. Spent time at the natural springs, did a short nature walk and went and viewed a beautiful waterfall. A peaceful day in the Algarve in a lovely area.

A short video of our travels from Albufeira to Porto via train. It was a well planned, long day and we arrived at our apartment overlooking the Douro River. Definitely worth the trip. Watch till the end and you can see the apartment tour (such a great location in Vila Nova de Gaia).

Welcome to Lisbon: The City of Seven Hills!
Discover the sun-drenched magic of Lisbon, Portugal’s stunning coastal capital. Nestled where the Tagus River meets the Atlantic Ocean, Lisbon is a breathtaking blend of ancient history, vibrant street art, and cutting-edge European culture.

In this video, we take you through the winding, cobblestone alleys of Alfama, chase the panoramic views from the city’s famous miradouros (viewpoints), and hop on the iconic yellow Tram 28. From the historic grandeur of Belém—home to the towering Jerónimos Monastery—to the Castelo de São Jorge, Lisbon is a city that captures your heart the moment you arrive.

Get ready for striking pastel-colored buildings, beautiful azulejo tiles, the soulful sounds of Fado music, and, of course, plenty of pastéis de nata (custard tarts, bufanos for dinner, followed by sips of ginja made by the locals.

Ferragudo is a beautiful picture perfect fishing village in the Algarve in Portugal. A laid back atmosphere, full of areas to explore. We spent a half day in this pretty village, walked through the winding, multi-stepped, cobblestone streets and through areas where the residents live. So very peaceful was our day. We ended it at the waters edge walking to the fortress at the edge of Arade River. If you are wanting to get away from touristic areas in the Algarve, this is a must do. Coming to this village was one of the highlights of our time in the Algarve. We highly recommend you visit this beautiful little village when travelling to Portugal.

Finding Godzilla... a beautiful walk in the Algarve. On our last day in the Algarve, we decided to take a walk at Praia de Sao Rafael beach and see if we could find the rock formation, "Godzilla". The walk was so scenic and we enjoyed our time outdoors. The sound of the waves makes for a very peaceful ending to a lovely walk.
