Trip to Portugal - Hope to Replace with MY Photos Upon our Return

View toward Castle - we are staying close to this area

My husband and I are about to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary with a trip to Portugal - staying at a timeshare location near the coast (Fano) and also five days in an apartment on the hill near the Castle.  This is so exciting.  We love to travel and know almost nothing about Portugal.  I did check out some sites  - link to wikipedia and a tourist site for Lisbon - llink to lisbon site but I have found that until you are actually at a location, it is almost impossible to imagine.  We have also been so pleased to get many, many recommendations from "Joe", the gentleman who is our agent for the apartment we are using in the city.  

So this will be my last blog for January - I hope to get lots of material and photos.
