Your connection to the revolution.:

Don't forget Portugal! In 1974 we were on a cruise ship crossing the Atlantic, scheduled to arrive in Lisbon. When the (Norwegian) captain was informed the military coup, he hesitated only for 1 day, and landed us there. Yes, we were among the only tourists, but yes, the military had carnations in their guns and we had a wonderful time and the country had a new constitution within 2 years.
