Family weekend

It has been a long time since the last going out family weekend. In spite of spending summer holidays together, I can't remember the last weekend out.
So this time we choose Oporto. He have passed through several times but never stopped by, so it sounded a good option.
I liked it a lot. The stone from that region is totally different from where I live and I find very interesting the buildings made with it so its like charming. Besides Lisbon was totally destroyed by an earthquake in the 18th century, so you find more old traditional and characteristic neighborhoods there.
One of the things is the very funny accent of local people that can be very funny. And we were able to also enjoy some of the famous things from there: the francesinha (a traditional dish), and Porto wine (have you heard speaking of that?). We visited the Ferreira company cellar and wondered throughout the city. Definitively worth's returning again. I'll leave you some pictures to open your appetite...

Well... maybe not!!!
