Where we are going












We will be staying in Obidos, Portugal, a medieval walled city in the Silver Coast part of the country.


We are renting this townhouse, which is just outside the old walled city - notice the cobblestone streets! We will be here from May 25 to June 8. Relaxing, wandering, and day trips to the many nearby beaches and coastal towns. Obidos is an hour north of Lisbon.







On June 8 we fly from Lisbon to Barcelona.






On June 12 we will begin traveling through the south (possibly zig-zagging around abit) of France with Lisa's cousin Jan and her husband Gilles. Tentative stops include Carcassonne, Sarlat, Lyon, Annecy and Beaune.



We then stay with them at their home in Brunoy, 15 min trainride from Paris. (this is NOT their house, but is a place -Carcassonne - we will passing through on our trip from Barcelona to Paris...)







Then a side trip to Brugge, Belgium.






We head back home on June 22.
