Fascinating! I always wanted to visit Portugal and now it is a pleasure to find it is way past my expectations. Have fun! Hi to Anne, Barcy and Patrick!

Your pictures are great, just as I would expect. My friend and I walked from near the bottom up to the top of the hills to the castle. We walked through amazing neighborhoods full of interesting tiled buildings. Luckily our knees were good.
It is fun to see your pictures to remind me of my trip. So glad you are enjoying your trip even without your case of TAB.

I am loving my re-visit of Lisbon and Sintra through your blog. Your pictures, of course, are wonderful. (My favorite part of every meal was the round powdered loaf of bread - and I am not usually a bread eater.) Stay healthy!
