Porto Tonico!

Well I totally lied in my last post regarding when I was going to write about our Porto, Portugal trip. So it's two weeks later than I intended, it's not like I'm getting paid for or graded on this, right? (Side note: I do accept donations)

I'm not feeling very wordy today, but I did want to share our pictures before I head off on my next adventure. Miss Miki arrives in three days! and boy do we ever have plans: a couple days at Oktoberfest, followed by trips to Salzburg, Vienna, Prague, and, of course, around beautiful Bavaria.

To summarize our trip to Porto: the food was incredible, obviously the port was fantastic, the city has a great ambiance which falls into the category of "well-loved but too poor for preservation", and we discovered a delicious new drink.

Perfect for  warm, sunny days

 Porto Tonico 

1 part white port
2 parts tonic water
ice cubes
lemon

 Pour port and tonic into a highball glass over ice. Muddle lemon and give the drink a fast stir, you want to create some fizz action. Not required, but we noticed that the best ones were prepared with a wooden stirring stick. Stirring stick? Is that what they're called...this sounds weird to me at the moment...

The lackluster effort put into this post in no way reflects my enthusiasm about this city. I would return and stay indefinitely in a heartbeat.
