The crazy Anzur Clement family hit the road in Spain and Portugal with a stopoff in Paris on the way home. Andrew and I are now heading to Maldives to coach the national TV station for election coverage.But first, a look at some of the vacation highlights:
Sagrada Familia and the amazing architechture of Gaudi in Barcelona...
An Indiana Jones
experience at the Monasterio la Piedra, a ruined monastery that is now a hotel and a private park filled with waterfalls and grottos.
Staying in a former archbishop's palace that is now a Hilton Hotel in Toledo. How many hotels have their own private art museum?
Walking the medieval walls of Avila...
Touring the cellars in Porto and sampling LOTS of port... then relaxing on the beautiful Atlantic coast near the medieval walled town of Obidos.
The long uphill climb in Sintra to a Moorish fort and the storybook castle of Pena...
Catching Eurocup fever in the square near our apartment in the Alfama district of Lisbon.
And two mother-son days in Paris, including a bicycle trip to Versailles and the grand tour of all my favorite spots from Stanford-in France days....priceless!
