You worried seeing all those Portuguese flags people might think hang on...

I like that, I think I might have a go at being portuguese.

they are being patriotic, probably incresed by the sense of distance from 'home' and if all the local are as welcoming as you I'm not surprised.

So far this world cup I have seen numerous flags from

France
Germany
Italy
England
Brazil
argentina
Czech republic
Spain
Portugal
Ecuador
and
A Cloggy all dressed up like a big neon orange

Thats with out paying too much attention and in town you could probably tick off every nation playing in the finals especially on a match day....having said that the swiss also complain about the foreign types coming and nicking their jobs
