When I went to visit my new found cousins in Lisbon 2 years ago all the male
cousins told me I was a very strong willed American woman.  Much to their
dismay, I told them my mother and 4 sisters were also.  When I told one of
them that I took vacations without my husband, with his blessing- thank you,
you could have heard a pin drop.  He said his wife would never travel
alone....personally, I think he thought she would never come back.  The
women in the family did drive and have cars, however.  Almost every single
one of these cousins has a PhD including the women.  I think they almost
passed out when I paid the dinner bill for all 27 of us....I think they
expected my husband to do this.  Such fun!
