This was our first time to Portugal and we didn't know what to expect and let me say we were blown away. We have been around the world and there are not many places that have truly genuine, down to earth people.

From the old grandma that patted her left shoulder telling us vá à esquerd, vá à esquerd, (go left, to left in Portuguese) to help us find our way to the castle to Patty the fantastic bombastic concierge at Four Seasons who recommended the best places for dinner or drinks and, as we were leaving for another hotel, said to call her if we had any problems or if there was anything she could do for us to the ladies at the little restaurant in Old Puerto Rico that gave us a whole list of Sushi restaurants and even called to make reservations for us! BOMBASTIC

If you haven't been to Portugal you must! And do it soon, with the changes in Europe I'm afraid that Portugal will soon loose it's charm plus, the Euro goes a long ways in Portugal right now and who knows how long it will be before their prices rise to the level of her neighbors.
