Great pictures and now I'm hungry after seeing that food.
When you travel, do you find that in any of these countries do they speak any English at all? I know in a lot of countries English is a second language, but since I'm American and speak only English, I wondered how it would be to travel to foreign countries not knowing the language.

Thanks for your comment. The Azores, although islands, are part of Portugal. In the tourist areas, as in many European countries, English is spoken. It's not always fluent English but you can get by fairly easily.
It's helpful to learn a few of the common words in the language of the country you visit - that's always appreciated. Using a language translator on your mobile device such as Deepl can also come in handy. -CW
