    Came here via Good Fences and the title of your blog intrigued me. Then I see that the subject is Portugal (I am of Azoren Portuguese heritage)

    I love the feel of these photos, the red-roofed buildings on the hill. These photos make me want to hop on a plane for Portugal!

    Neat views of this place in Portugal. I find it interesting how the buildings are built on the hillsides like that. That hotel is amazing looking. There is a town called (Astoria) in Oregon State in the USA.
    Your daughter is a lovely young woman.
