Hey, where's Waldo? Porto, Portugal

PORTUGAL
August 9th I flew from Orlando to Paris, then back over to Porto Portugal.  My nephew Ryan and his wife Bekki are making plans to move to Porto and WE are on a search mission to find lodging.
Porto is a port city made of MANY steep hills.  (did i mention the steep hills?) Everywhere we went was up a hill. Then you get to the top and have endless steep steps going up somewhere else. Finally when you are all worn out from walking you have to go uphill to get home...
Ryan dropped PINS with little notes about areas we saw during our well planned Willy Nilly walks.

Note: while out walking today, we ran into fellow blogger Josh from Expats Everywhere.  Josh is someone Ryan has been following for about a year as he studies moving to Portugal. What are the odds of us running into him? (should I play the Lotto?)
