Lagos, Portugal, with a pitstop at La Rabida.

Columbus Day weekend this year, we did the patriotic thing and went to visit the place Christopher Columbus lived before his famous voyage.  We visited La Rabida, on our way to Portugal.  It turned out to be a great pitstop.  The kids were able to climb all over replicas of the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria. 

Then onto Lagos, Portugal.  We took in all the beautiful cliffside views and played in the sand at the beach.  We took a boat ride into the grottos, which was a lot of fun.  Mostly we relaxed and let the kids rest, as they weren't feeling great.  We made the most of it, and the kids even got McDonalds before the drive home.















Some people sleeping in a little nook.


The kids loved the jetted tub with bubbles, who wouldn't!
