My memories are fading, but I do remember we had a great time and everyone we met was wonderful. One thing bugged me as a kid. My grandparents were Italian immigrants to the US, and our family was always eating baccala.(Cod). I hated cod, and in my memory it was all I could get to eat in Portugal! I'm sure I was exaggerating. Another memory. When we landed, there were men with machine guns on the tarmac. I asked my father what was going on. He said, don't worry, it's always like this in Europe!

But I am sure they know how to eat healthier over there. You must have enjoyed some meals there, right?

Oh man, when I was in Taiwan, I ate at burger king quite a bit. Because their burger was the most similar. I think it came down to the mayo and ketchup. Mcdonalds there used something different.

'Bacalhau' is probably the most famous and traditional dish in Portugal. There are over 1000 dishes with cod! And you want to know the best? We don't have cod in our sea area, which isn't small. Most of it comes from Norwegian waters.

We went to one fancy restaurant, and that was the special on the menu. All the kids groaned.
