We're leaving... again. Alicia and I decided to spend the day in Lisbon en route to Madrid, which I'm really happy we did. Lisbon is very reminiscent of San Francisco with huge hills (great for the glutes!) and trams and trolley cars throughout. Considering I've been getting such little sleep these past few days, though, I have no desire to get back on a night bus (especially one that gets in at 4:30am!). We also don't have a hostel for the night, as everything was booked when we checked online this morning. I suppose this is a lesson learned, though, as I really don't know what I should have expected booking so late. I'm just hoping I'll be able to find SOMETHING; otherwise, I'm going to have to rethink my plans pretty quickly.
Anyway, my favorite moments from Lisbon:
- Our hostel (look "Inside")
- Meeting another photo buff, Asher
- Seeing a Fado performance
- Drinking mojitos and caipirinhas
- Climbing to the top of the city to visit Castelo de Sao Jorge
- Eating codfish, which is a typical Portugese dish though it is actually brought in from Norway
Sounds pretty :) I LOVED San Fran.
