We had ourselves all prepared for a holiday in Portugal filled with rain, rain, and more rain. Though rain there has been, there has also been some glorious sun – enough even to put some colour in ours cheeks. Having nothing but bright sun from morning until night is obviously lovely, but on this trip we are finding ourselves all the more grateful for the sun due to the interludes of torrential rain.

A nice bit of sunshine makes a holiday 🙂
Definitely, especially when we were expecting a week of rain!
I have always wanted to go to Portugal. The photos looks pretty cool to me.
I would recommend Portugal highly, I love it there. Beautiful weather, scenery, and people – you can’t ask for much more!
I have a bunch of friends that went to Portugal recently and they couldn’t have had nicer things to say. I can’t wait to go someday.
I keep hearing great things about Portugal. I never considered it a place I had a strong desire to go to, however, now it’s towards the top of my list.
