Last few shots from Sintra and Cabo Da Roca, which is the westernmost point of mainland Europe. Stunning miradouro (overlook). The winds were fierce and sustained at better than 60 mph with howling gusts to 75 mph.

Little Mrs. KG originally refused to come out on the cliffs until I explained that the wind was blowing from the east and as such would not be snatching her off the cliff and flinging her 110 pounds over the edge and down into certain doom in the rocky surf below.

Thanks to all of you folks who commented and offered kind well-wishes and congratulations. I fell for my lady in Tokyo when I was 11, some 43 years ago. Found her 25 years after that not in Japan but in NYC. Last 20 years we've spent together in married bliss and look forward to every minute of however many days we have left together. God willing, we'll see our 50th anniversary.

Carpe diem and live and love. There is no guarantee of tomorrow.
