Porto, Portugal

So I figured I should get another perspective of Portugal other than Lisbon, so I went to Porto for half a day.  I didn't get to see much though.  Getting there in the afternoon with Emil, we went for a walk, then it started to rain.   But hey, I tried.  I learned that Portugal's cities are VERY hilly, it's a constant up and down. 
I left the very next morning to catch a train back to Lisbon where I would catch my train to Paris. 

Thoughts while in Portugal:

-It's really cheap here. 
-People love singing, on the streets, in the buses, everywhere.
-The vibe here is very jolly, inviting and very relaxed.  A nice change from Spain.
-There are huge bridges everywhere
-Instead of corner shops, there are pastry shops everywhere.  Very frustrating.
