Olá from Portugal. Craig and I landed yesterday morning and are just getting our bearings after an exhausting red-eye. Ready to explore Lisbon with Noken for the next few days before we head to Porto. The weather is just absolute perfection and we can’t get over the buildings and architecture. We keep walking down every street staring down at the sidewalks because it’s all hand cut tile, seriously incredible. Of course we’re both missing the dogs and the cat but they’re in good hands, and we’re getting lots of updates with pictures and videos. Wishing all of you a great weekend.
