Then they baked and finished the tiles and gave them back to us in Porto. Mine looks like something proud parents of a 4 year old would display and I have it sitting out and get a good memory and a chuckle every time I look at it. That was a hard place to get good photos because there was a lot of reflection.

Hi Corinne! If you ever go back, add it to your must visit list. One of my favorite museums in the city.

Hi Mary! Yes, I did go into the chapel. It was gorgeous. Something weird seems to have gone on with my camera. I had a series of black “photos:, and those must be the ones that I took in the Chapel. I’m not sure why they came out black. The chapel was amazing!

They really do tell a story. I’m loving Portugal so far.

What a beautiful place and we couldn’t get over how amazing those tiles were. Did you go into the chapel too? There were no artisans during our visit and you’re right it would have been so neat to watch them work. I was told that groups of 10+ can schedule to make their own tiles too.

I think I would love to work there and join those women restoring tiles. 🙂

Everything is beautiful and it’s wonderful to see artists restoring the tiles.
