PORTUGAL (land of 1000 ubers)
june 2nd. i had never booked an uber (and had only been in 3) up until this trip. I swear we were in an uber at all times. it wasn't that bad, will and I just had some places we wanted to see that were a bit further away, but we were very close to the marina and the heart of albufeira, which was great for walking around. I should start with us flying in, and finally getting stamps in our passports!! I almost had a panic attack, but we stayed calm, got an uber and rode to the chapel of bones (capela dos ossos) This is one of the places I was determined to see. There is an even bigger one in Evora, but we didn't want to make that big of a detour, and this place was perfect. We walked through a beautiful chapel and through the back where there is a chapel decorated with the remains of over 3,000 people. There is also an alter made of bones. It was amazing. I love when religious lean into death and mortality. Very cool. We walked around faro for a minute, then headed to Albufeir...
