First Diogo tweeted this picture, saying: "Adivinhem onde estou?" ("Guess where I am?")
A few hours later (and after several fans had guessed correctly), Diogo tweeted the below photo, saying: "Muito bem. Very good who said "Palacio da Pena" and "Castelo dos Mouros" in Sintra - Portugal. Love it."
Darwin also tweeted some amazing pictures of Castelo dos Mouros in Sintra Village:
Darwin also shared pictures of the Palácio Nacional da Pena:
Darwin tweeted this photo of inside the Palace as well, saying: "The queens bedroom (She wasn't there)."

And because he is simply that awesome, Darwin sent us another picture of Castelo dos Mouros in Sintra for the blog:

Okay, is anyone else besides me ready to book a trip to Portugal, like NOW? :) What a special place. I encourage you to click on their respective links above to read even more about Sintra, the Castle of the Moors, and the Pena National Palace... such amazing history and beauty there.
Oh and FYI... Darwin also tweeted a bit of news/update today when he was asked if he had any new movies coming up, saying, "I'm doing a TV show at the end of the month shooting in Wales but can't say much about it yet. And auditioning!!!"
Congrats Darwin and break a leg. We can't wait to see both you and Diogo on the screen again!
You can follow Diogo on Twitter at @D_Morgado and Darwin at @DarwinShaw. And thanks to both of them for sharing their pictures with us.

ROCKING BLOG!!!!!!!
This blog is just beautiful! And we are getting news directly from Diogo and Darwin.That is awesome!!! These 2 rocks!!!
ReplyDeleteSintra is a magical place, like a fairy tale. Besides the castle and this palace, there are a few more palaces there. It's a microclima, so sometimes it's covered in mist while it's sunny in Lisbon (30 minutes between the two places on the highway).
ReplyDeleteAnd, as Liliana said, this is just a tiny glimpse of Portugal has to offer.
I definitely want to travel to Portugal now!! It is both beautiful and historical!
ReplyDeletePortugal is undoubtedly the best destination to visit. We have lots of places from north to south just delicious and lovely to leave you just spellbound. Received all of you with open arms as if you guys were our family. Who says it is a very, very, very proud Portuguese woman.
