Porto — Obrigado!

One last glimpse of my beautiful Porto and my Fulbright trip there, just before I introduce you to Problem-Based Learning in Belgium….

I travelled half the coast of Portugal during my week-long stay.
I found…
…exquisite architecture…
…elegant detailing…
…and beautiful…
…public spaces.
Not the least of which…
…is Porto’s waterfront…
…which glistens…
…at night.
By the time I hit the airport I was exhausted…
…but did manage to note…
…the beautiful detailing…
…and finally discovered the spelling of “thank you” in Portuguese.

Exotic Porto

Porto's water front -- the perfect place for dinner and an evening stroll!

Porto’s water front — the perfect place for dinner and an evening stroll!

After speaking in Setabul, Lisbon, and Aviero, I packed up bag and hopped on the train to Porto.  It’s a lovely port city with steep topography and — surprise — more of Portugal’s stunning architecture!

I’ve been uploading the photos I took using my iPhone, so, unfortunately, I’m only providing a fleeting glimpse of these gorgeous places.  I hope someday you’ll have the chance to visit them for yourself.
