Day 9 Overview

Bought makings for breakfast and lunches; some challenges using the stove but by the end had figured it out - why are European appliances so difficult to understand? The baked good is called "Queque" pronounced "cake" and our bakery told us that it is what Portuguese usually have along with a coffee for breakfast. This one was a mildly sweet orange one, basically a rich muffin - likely no fibre!

Home for our last night in Alfama, one more dinner to soak up the atmosphere, we had baked Portuguese sausages with onions and carrots, the last of the Calem Tawny Port and chocolate. It's going to be hard not to be gaining weight on this trip!

Bus across town to Belem. Pleasantly warm day, and by using the bus a bit, a total of 14,745 steps.Weiterlesen
