Heading out to Portugal

Our "hiking group" has been talking about going to Portugal for several years - the dream has been to design a trip that still includes some hiking, but also includes a lot more seeing sights, eating good food, and tasting the local wine! After lots of deliberation and difficult "calendar coordination," we settled on Portugal. Like our other trips, we have planned it on our own — after several initial meetings, we divided up some different areas in Portugal we wanted to visit, and each person in our group of six took responsibility to research options. 

One of the "challenges" of planning a trip when you widen the purpose beyond "just hiking" is there are so many options to choose from. But we've worked through it by continually telling ourselves "we can't do it all." Hopefully, we've put together a great trip that each person in our group has contributed to in the planning process. We are packed and ready for our adventure.
