BEWARE: FADO FEVER IS CATCHING…I KNOW BECAUSE I CAUGHT IT!


By Janet Steinberg, Travel Editor

Bom Dia (good morning) was my sunny greeting as I arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel Ritz in Lisbon, Portugal. 

Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon, long considered the city’s premier hotel, reflects the nobility and charm of historic Portugal.  It was there that I chose to spend the three days prior to my embarking on Silversea’s Silver Whisper for a cruise that would sail me to such memorable sites as the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, Spain and the WW ll Normandy Landing Beaches in France.
