We
arrived
at
Terriers
do
Paco
just
8
minutes
after
the
11am
ferry
left.
As
the
1300
was
not
operating,
our
next
option
was
the
14.00.
It
was
suggested
we
make
our
way
to
Belem
to
catch
the
12.00
ferry
which
in
our
naïveté
we
thought
would
carry
on
to
Trafaria,
where
we
wanted
to
go
to
a
beach
for
a
swim.
As
we
had
our
hop
on-hop
off
tickets
we
went
to
the
tram
stop
to
catch
the
15
tram
as
advised,
only
we
caught
it
the
wrong
way,
and
after
crawling
around
the
corner
we
knew
we
would
never
get
to
Belem
on
time
unless
we
took
an
Uber.
So
into
an
Uber
we
got,
and
arrived
15
minutes
early!
We
were
triumphant,
however
our
triumph
sagged
as
the
boat
arrived
30
minutes
late
and
we
realised
we
could
have
walked
there
in
that
time.
When
the
boat
finally
arrived
we
were
told
the
next
stop
was
-
Terriers
do
Paco
-
for
an
hour's
stop.
Right
back
where
we
came.
The
14.00
ferry
in
other
words.
A
(n
expensive)
liquid
lunch
was
calling.
Back
at
14.00
we
finally
got
to
go
to
Trafaria,
and
arrived
about
15.00
and
were
told
to
be
back
for
16.30
for
the
16.40
boat
-
the
last
boat
of
the
day
(not
17.40
as
advertised)
We
Ubered
to
a
beach
for
a
quick
swim,
then
Ubered
back
on
time
for
a(nother)
thirty
minute
wait
for
the
boat.
One
couple
who
also
disembarked
at
Trafaria
had
been
urged
to
try
the
local
fish
delicacies
-
only
no
establishment
was
open
to
offer
any
food
in
the
time
we
were
there.
When
the
ferry
arrived
there
were
no
seats
on
top
of
course.
For
the
trip
from
Belem
to
Terreiro
do
Paco
we
had
a
seat
upstairs
and
it
was
lovely
-
but
what
a
lot
of
mucking
around!
We
opted
for
the
hop
on-hop
off
tram
and
boat
ticket
for
two
days
and
paid
a
lot
of
money
-
€30
each
-
for
overcrowded,
unpredictable
modes
of
transport.
Uber
was
our
saviour.
