I know this was written almost a month ago, but I've been remiss in keeping up with your wonderful posts. Braga looks amazing and I need to at least visit it one of these days! Thank you for the short tour. Hope we can meet again soon for coffee in Setúbal!
Hey Shana, Guimarães is your town. Great little Museum Martins Sarmento, great middle age downtown square, beautiful city, and where Portugal was found. The castle is there to attest to it. You must go. Braga to me is just too Catholic despite a nice place
Delightful! We’re waiting about four months to get our visa. It’s in Portugal now from San Francisco Consolate. I can’t wait. We’re moving to Figuerira da Foz. Exciting!
Hi Shanna, Sounds like you had a pleasant if somewhat hapless time in Braga! We can't wait to get up there. Have heard great things. Hope you are enjoying Porto. I love days like today after a rain day like yesterday. Beautiful puffy clouds and blue sky. We had lunch out at WOW on Tuesday and it was glorious! It showed us how out of shape we are. 10,000 steps between our place and Gaia, and when I say steps, I mean stair steps! Porto is our stairmaster and we need to get back on it! Now is the perfect time to be seeing the sights, without the crowds that you know will eventually return. You are intrepid. Good work!

We walk everywhere too, no cars here! Weather and Covid have kept us inside. Igualmente, bom fim de semana!
