Quick trip to Portugal

Eric took a quick jaunt to Portugal to help Daniela with some work, and also to check on the Vieira do Minho branch of the Menagerie.

They seem to be clucking along just fine.

Pictures of the newest additions to the brood will be forthcoming once Daniela's back home.

Of course, no trip to Portugal would be complete without sipping Vinho do Porto, in this case at the tasting room run by the Instituto do Vinho do Porto. Did we drink several glasses of 10-year-old Tawny? Yes. Did we watch the sun set over the Douro River and the beautiful city of Porto? Yup. Jealous yet?

Yes, the Solar do Vinho do Porto is a pretty divine place. We were happy to visit once again.

Translation: 'No one has fed us any lettuce for DAYS AND DAYS!'

Why do I always have food-obsessed animals??

Picture by Daniela, just to give credit where it's due! Same goes for the other Portugal photo.
