Haven't been there in September, but a few of my favorite things are <BR>1. the mountains and town of Sintra <BR>2. fado music in the Alfama neighborhood of Lisbon <BR>3. Cabo da Roca, the spectacular cliffs at the westernmost point of Europe <BR>4. walking around the walls of Obidos <BR>5. Serra cheese, fresh bread, tomatoes, and olive oil <BR>6. flying down to Madeira for a few days <BR>7. fishing town of Ericeira <BR>8. watching for tiles everywhere, especially in the churches--beautiful! <BR>9. shopping for textiles and ceramics <BR>10. meeting and talking to some of the nicest people I've ever met!
