The Land of Harry Potter

Last Sunday we had the opportunity to tour around a beautiful city in northern Portugal called Porto. The story is that JK Rowling worked in the city and got a lot of inspiration from it for the Harry Potter series. After touring around and seeing the old feel of the city (not to mention the heavy fog which lended itself toward a magical feeling) we can definitely see where she got it! Enjoy the pictures, and a special shout out to our friend Carla who served as an amazing tour guide!

Porto is the home of Port wine. They use these boats to go into the wine cellars and retrieve the barrels of aged wine.
