Day 51: touring Lisbon

As luck would have it, our first full day in Lisbon was on National
Mobility Day. Doesn't really mean that much to us either, except that
the metro is free all day!!! Woot!! So we made full use of it making
our way to various sections of town and checking out some of the
neighborhoods, doing some shopping, eating and drinking.

So far we both really love Lisbon. Seems so modern and clean and
refined and easy to get around. Everything seems to have just slowed
down. We think the slower pace has something to do with lack of
scooters or mopeds buzzing around you. They like their cable cars
too. This shot kinda reminded me of San Francisco.

Tomorrow: city sight seeing

  1. Jon and Mo: I will need to know how good the domestic Portuguese wine is! I know MM and I love their wine exports. They have so many strange and unique grape varieties there.
