It wasn’t so hot when I was there, maybe spring? My pleasure.

Portugal is such a beautiful country isn’t it, although also soooo hot! The tiles were amazing that’s for sure. Thanks for reading Ruth 🙂

Would have loved to go just for the tile in the train station! I did enjoy fado in a few other cities, so moving and mournful. Your photo of the river is lovely.

Oh yes I bet it’s frustrating having to fit around school holidays when it’s busy – we always try to do our long breaks in May and November and avoid the crowds. I couldn’t believe how crazy busy Porto was!! Thanks for reading – have a great weekend 🙂

I know right, absolutely ridiculous. Instagram hot spots really have gone mad…I bet no-one buys any books either!

Both Lisbon and Porto are amazing cities, and Lisbon has the added benefit of having Sintra so close by as well – but to me I did actually prefer Porto as there is just so much to do there and it’s really beautiful. Hope you get to visit Portugal soon 🙂

Oh that’s so amazing you walked the Portuguese Camino, what an awesome route! The port really is amazing isn’t it, to be honest it’s worth a visit just for a weekend drinking haha! Aw so glad to bring back some happy memories for you 🙂

So disappointing about how long the lines were. I wish I could travel in the off season to avoid things like this, but no such luck with our teaching schedules…
