I am on my way to Porto today and the weather here in in Portugal is way too cold for my problematic fingers. I brought windproof gloves and have been layering them with my fingerless gloves, but that isn't enough.
Is there an outdoors store that would probably sell wool or other good material thin glove liners?
Thanks

There is a great little outdoor supply shop in the historical centre of Porto, where I was able to pick up some things I needed.

I am shocked that her two layers of gloves are not enough to keep hands warm in Portugal as it's almost the middle of May. This spring has been crazy all over Europe and the US, and it seems like unusually bad weather is not finished yet!

If it gets really bad, you can use a pair of socks over the other layers!

Thanks! I have circulation problems with my fingers. No one else is waking around with gloves. It does get cold at night though right now.
