My wife and I wanted to pick a spot that neither of has had been to, with a relatively short plane ride to get there, and of course great food and drink mixed with some super spots to see. And we wanted to go with some friends.
So – our choice was Portugal. Traditionally, it’s hasn’t been the most popular of European tourist spots, but we’d heard of a lot of folks who’d been there recently, including having some friends from our neighborhood move there a couple of years ago. We chose a 10-day trip that would take us to Lisbon, Nazare, Coimbra, the Douro Valley, and Porto, with some group touring but sufficient time to ourselves, including multiple meals.
There’s much more to come . . .
