(Thursday, Oct.3 - Porto, Portugal) Eva and I arrived in Porto, Portugal this morning. Amazingly, all three flights, DSM to Chicago to Newark to Porto were fairly on time, give or take a half hour
After navigating to our accommodation in Porto, which was no small feat, we stored our luggage a half mile away until check in time (no early check-ins here. I envied Eva’s foresight to not bring a roller bag; Porto is covered in cobblestone streets and sidewalks).
So to kill time we headed for this lovely Mercado with the most incredible array of fresh produce, cheeses, fish, pastries.
Dinner, at La Ricotta just around the corner, was divine. Squid Ink Linguini with prawns, mussels and oysters and tiramisu for dessert
The wine here is fantastic and oh so inexpensive. The most generous pours for only 3 Euros. I love this city.
