Lisbon, Portugal

Over Memorial day weekend in May, we went to Portugal again.  I have to say that Portugal is one of my favorite places--I LOVE it!! This time we went to a place called Sintra, which is just outside of Lisbon.  We had to drive through Lisbon, so we stopped and saw a few of the highlights--the Discovery Monument and a little castle.
Here are the kids and Eric standing in front of the Discovery Monument.  It is a monument to all the famous discovers of the world--Columbus, Magellan, etc.
Here are the kids praying like the big statue!


This guy was playing the accordion and his dog had a little cup he was holding in his mouth to put tips!

In Europe they have these fun "exercise playgrounds" and the kids LOVE playing on the them!
Cade doing his exercises!

We walked into this little castle on the water


Kailey and her poses--LOVE them!!
