we will be in Lisbon from the 3rd and leaving on the 12th. Unfortunately we will missed each other by few days. Otherwise it would be nice to have some local showing us around the place. Last time we did that was when we went to jordan ... googling a blog user from Jordan. Contact her and asked her around about the place. Ended up meeting up with her and her family ... they showed us around amman and we become friends till now :D

thank you for your PM ... :) And i hv returned it.

Hope you enjoy your stay in Doha.

Novita - have been to Athens in July and husband has been in November as well. I liked Athens. My daughter and I found stuff to do for 3 weeks while husband worked. We also went out to the island of Hydra. Husband says it was chilly in November. Don't know if you are looking for a warm place. :)

thanks Nib. But i remember either superxpat or cyman said during winter time not much happening in the island.

I have explore the net looking around Lisbon, and it seems plenty of things to see in there.

Probably we just have to go back to Turkey :D

Btw Nib ... do you need any more YTL? I have about 200 left and i cant find any money changer who willing to buy it up from me :-(
