These are beautiful buildings found in Cascais, Portugal earlier this month. Both are old residences but the one below is currently a charming little hotel with 10 rooms. The (cropped) picture is also my current header.
Both buildings were across the street from our hotel and I simply loved seeing them daily. The details are truly amazing, click to enlarge and see for yourself.
The handwriting MEME
Yes, she wants to see our handwriting.
Her instructions:
1.) Go ahead, get a piece of paper and a pen. Prepared? Okay!
2.) Write a pangram in your language. A pangram, also known as holalphabetic sentence, is a sentence that contains all letters of the alphabet at least once. “The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog.” is a common example in English. There are pangrams in all languages - for a little inspiration spy *here*.

I learned something new, since I didn't know a thing about pangrams until now! and I got to write something else other than my to-do or grocery shopping list... Which was also a nice distraction from my swollen cheek (it's a lot better, thanks for asking and thanks for the get-well wishes on the prior post) Here is my Spanish pangram, which I took from the clever net, including our particular letter Ñ , umlaut over the u between g and e to make it pronounceable, and accents:
