This will be a Post that follows a book I am reading by Karen McCann. It is partially called, "Adventures of a Railway Nomad."
I love train rides and rail tales, but this one immediately surprised me with the interesting fact that the idea for this new train adventure that would take place in various European countries like Germany and Croatia had originated while on a ferry heading to the 'no cars allowed' Island of Culatra located just off Portugal's southern shore.
Karen and her husband, Rich, had moved to Seville from California 10 years earlier. This particular day, they had left Spain behind and were on the ferry heading for a visit with a beachcomber friend who lived on Ilha da Culatra.
As you might guess, my first OffShore Armchair Travel today has been to Culatra.
*Living in South Texas, my first thought was to check out the spelling and verify the island was not called the Isle of Cilantro! It was not.
