Back to the ship

Then it was back on the elevator to the main square. I passed through the arch and found the tram to take me back to the ship. There was a tram stop with a foot bridge right across from the ship so I had no trouble getting back on my day pass. I was glad to not pay the return $5 shuttle bus fee.

Overall it was a nice day. Lisbon doesn't really have any first tier tourist sights but does have many mid-level ones. I've been in Lisbon several times so had seen most of what is offered by the ship's tours before.

After sailing away the captain announced that we were in for rough weather. He expects us to encounter 15.5 meter waves so advised everyone to hang on and that many of the open decks would be closed.
