A quick weekend away

It seemed like a perfectly normal day- I was hanging out with a friend while she was looking up plane tickets for spring break, when all of the sudden she says something along the lines of "woah look how cheap tickets are to Portugal". I peeked over her shoulder, she wasn't kidding: 17 euros, round trip. We looked at each other, I'm pretty sure we had a small dialogue about how we should do it and five minutes later, there we we were, looking at a confirmation page letting us know we were going to Porto for a short weekend trip! And within the next couple days we had coerced (not that it took much convincing) some of our other buddies to join us.
I really loved Porto. If the beautiful views in the city weren't enough, the warm weather made the trip just perfect. In fact I was able to go most of the day in just a sweater- which is a big deal coming from the freezing cold Bordeaux.
The trip was just the right amount of time to relax and enjoy the old city.

We wandered around a really cool market that was set inside a really old building
