Wed 14 May- after breakfast, on to Setubal (pronounced stew-ball by the locals) to our 'Pousada de Sao Filipe', previously a castle high on a cliff overlooking the city with a great view of the city and the Natural Park of Arrabida, in which it is located. Our room was up a long flight of ancient rough stone stairs, and no elevator was available. We walked down the hill to the town and back for exercise; since it's in a natural park, the walk was through lots of green and flowers to the town.
We had supper at the pousada: grilled vegetables and grilled fish of the day (bream) and the house white wine. The dining room had a great view of the city, and we were surrounded by beautiful dishes and tureens.
