Today I decided ‘enough talk…we must DO!’ So I bought ourselves a travel journal each and this Lonely Planet guide to Portugal as an incentive. But this is just the start of it…after a bit of discussion, we thought a ’round the world’ ticket is the way to go; Cape Town first stop, THEN Lisbon in Portugal, followed by Amsterdam, London and somewhere in the USA or Ireland/Scotland (that one is up for discussion…)
Synopsis for Portugal:
“A land of craggy cliff-top castles and enchanting cities blending medieval and modern, Portugal also means soulful fado, fantastic seafood and glittering beaches ripe for exploring.” (Regis St. Louis, Lonely Planet writer). Our promise: You can trust our travel information because Lonely Planet authors visit the places we write about, each and every edition. We never accept freebies for positive coverage, and you can rely on us to tell it like we see it. Inside this book: 4 dedicated authors, 21 weeks of research, 489 restaurants visited, one too many glasses of port, inspirational photos, clear, easy-to-use maps, at-a-glance practical info, full-colour food & wine chapter, comprehensive planning tools and easy-to-read layout.
That’s great! Travelling is wonderful! We have just booked a ‘family friendly’ holiday to Fiji in August.
Ah you booked it, that’s wonderful! Bet you can’t wait! And yes…now that I am over my fear of flying, I seem to have itchy feet and want to see the world!!
