A bit nicer today, our plans are to go to visit Queluz Palace, which is a stop on the same train that goes to Sintra. I think every tourist was on the way to Sintra today, crazy busy at the train station to get our tickets, and the train was packed. We have previously been to Sintra and explored quite a bit of Lisbon, so spending today outside the city.
