Cascais, Douro Valley, Europe, Lisbon, Porto, Portugal

This post is a collection of leftover photos from Portugal, organized by Lisbon, the Douro Valley, Porto and Cascais. For whatever reason, these didn't make the blog the first time around, but I thought they were worth sharing. This post contains 21 photos.

Visit to Portugal: Two Days in Cascais

Cascais, Europe, Guides, Portugal, Travelogue

The fourth and final stop on our tour of Portugal was the tony seaside village of Cascais, about 25 miles west of Lisbon. Cascais is where the locals go to get away from the city to enjoy the beach, and is also a wealthy community of coastal homes, second houses and seaside escapes. Cascais is the Hamptons of Lisbon. In this post we flee hoards of Germans at the western-most point of Europe, visit the unusually tame Boca de Inferno, search for food in the village of Cascais and brave the wind-swept beaches of Guincho. This post has 18 photos, enjoy!

Portugal

Europe, Lisbon, Portugal

Just returned from a terrific 8-day trip across Portugal, visiting Lisbon, the Douro Valley, Porto and the Cascais Coast. I managed to fill two, 32GB memory cards with over 1,200 photos. I'll be sorting through these over the next few days and will be posting a few summaries of our trip shortly. We're tired, jetlagged, and broke, but had an amazing time and can't recommend it enough. This post has one photo.

Greetings from Porto!

Europe, Porto, Portugal

We just arrived in Porto, Portugal after three days enjoying the Douro Wine valley at a place called Quinta Romaneira. The Internet service has been pretty lousy, and we've been busy eating and drinking wine, so I'll post more photos when I return. The photo below is from Vila Nova de Gaia looking across the Douro River toward Porto. This post has one photo.

We've been in Lisbon for the past two days to kick off a week-long tour of Portugal and it's historic wine regions in the Douro Valley. Much more to come, but enjoying the sights, food and spirits thus far. This post has one photo.
