Portugal Pics....

Portugal is fabulous!!!!!
We stayed near the town of Albufeira in the Algarve region (south coast)

We ended up booking tours & didn't bother with a car.
It worked out great to see as much as we could in the 2 weeks.

We did;
- .5 day to Loule market
- 2 day to Lisbon, Sintra
- 3 day to Seville, Morocco & Gibraltar
- 1 day Historical Algarve (Silves, Monchique, Lagos, Sagres)


The Algarve was the perfect destination for us.
Weather was warm (16 -18) and sunny and only a couple days with rain.

Here are a few pics of the many that we took on the trip







Gibraltar



Seville



Lisbon





world famous Belem pastry shop




Moroco




West Coast taken at the then, end of the world (Sagres)
