The weather outside is tricky all over the place but from Lisbon to Cascais Portugal insists in finding a permanent solution inside. Dive and swim are the magic words.
GO OUT AND SWIM INDOORS
Maybe because the fado (that lament in the shape of a longing that reminds us what we are yet to become) is the national song, the Portuguese tend to regret before living in hope. And we do need a plan B. The weather used to help us, but now we live to try and assure the tourists that from Lisbon to Cascais this country is made of a glorious summer. And when the weather doesn’t get it, it’s up to the hotel swimming pools to solve the problem.
It is the fate of great hotels everywhere: if it rains or the cold reigns, it’s up to the hotels to give away the solution. Beautiful swimming pools, warm and cosy, must play the part of what the hot weather refuses to give for free. From the seven hills of Lisbon to the irresistible seaside of Cascais, a number of hotel swimming pools are waiting for you dive, for your longing of a hot and comfortable day. Try not to stay dry, will you?
