Thank you for the kind words, it has been two years in the planning. I’m the eldest at 70 and the youngest is 58 yo who is still working RN. Two are coming from Manila, two from LA 2 from Ohio, 1 from Ontario. The planning was the major work. The best get together we will have.
Thank you all, we bought our bus tickets departing SDC and arriving Oporto Campanha. The vital detail that I needed was the train station for Lisbon which is from Porto Campanha station. We either walk or take the metro once we are in Porto.
We don't have tickets yet for the train. My research shows train departing every hour . My dilemma is finding the right station to depart for Lisbon and we intend to get the tickets at the station.

Your photos brought me back to a lot of good memories.
