Going it Alone in the City
I would have loved to try the fried Bullfrog, but let's face- I would have loved to have tried everything you've eaten! You've convinced me to try chicken feet next time I go to Dim Sum. Very impressed that you went out by yourself at night to explore the city. No better way to get to know a new place. While intimidating since you didn't speak the language, it sounded exciting.

Academy Award
You deserve a "Best Actor" award! You may have felt like a zombie on your first day, but you look just fabulous! Thanks for the first look at China!

LOVE CASCAIS
I love the post! And your photos! I dedicated a short post to Cascais, its beach and food… I hope you enjoy the read! http://bit.ly/1KnfsAS

Smell of Sulphur/ Chicken Innards Mixed Grill
Only you can make a body of water that reeks of sulphur and a mixed grill made of the inside of a chicken seem wonderful & delicious. Israel does seem incredible. Glad you're having time to unwind and experience a bit of an adventure. Outstanding blog as usual. Enjoy.

"Baked in Clay"
I LOVE the photo of you baked in clay! It will probably make you look even younger!

Wish I Was There
Such a colorful narrative! Thanks for your most enjoyable blog!

Fabulous!
What a way to spend a birthday! Thanks for taking me along. So glad you're back home!

Amazing!
Jeff -- you are just amazing! I love your descriptions -- especially of the food! I'd be fine with most of it, but you'd have to eat any octopus that happened to land on my plate!

What a Whirlwind Three Days!
Son, you do not disappoint. You've continued the family tradition of cramming into three days what most people couldn't cover in a week. Portugal looks as just charming the second go round. The Moorish influence reminds me a bit of our trip to Spain and that one castle was very " Game of Thrones"

Swiss Spatzli
Oh, what a wonderful-looking dish! You find the best food, Jeff!

Thank You
Thank you, dear Jeff, for taking me with you to Malta! However, I was really looking forward to your adventure at the "Fish Lounge." We'll have to find one in the U.S.

Hey - I have heard abouit those tiny nibbling fish treatments! Go for it but make sure they are not tiny piranhas! Would have loved to hear your Backstreet Boys number. Have fun!

Off to a great start!
I'm fascinated by island culture and Malta looks intriguing. Looks like your trip is off to a great start. Seriously, 16 year old drinking age? That should make for some interesting bar hopping stories. Weather seems beautiful. Enjoy.
