Fall 2018 Excursion to Porto
On September 21-23 we had our group trip to Porto, Portugal!
We took a tour of the city, with views of the Douro River, the neighborhood of Ribeira, and the surrounding area.
The first night we ate dinner at “Casa da Música” while watching a Fado performance.
We then went on the “Six Bridges” boat tour and visited the church of São Francisco.
On our way back, we went to the Robert Mapplethorpe exhibit at the Fundação Serralves.
