Lisbon Day 3

So much exploring today. And crazy amount of steps taken today. Hit the Fado museum and learned about the beautiful and soulful history of Fado music in Portugal, which originated in the Alfama (dubbed Alfalfa) district of Lisbon. Lots of just walking around and admiring the lovely architecture. We also went around the Alfama district a bit but it seemed to be ‘siesta’ time, where most places are closed between 2-5pm. After this, we went to go see the Castle of São Jorge. I still don’t really get what it’s about, but I think it was like a defence lair or something. The views at the top were to die for, and it was cool to explore. Later at night we went to the little festival that was conveniently 3 minutes away from our place. Opted to share piña colada in a pineapple, which is so extra but we are extra. We returned to Pink Street with the goal to DANCE and we did exactly that. We became besties with the DJ and he let us dance on elevated surfaces and let us wear the DJ headphones 😁 Later, me and Ailish ventured to find bread for the next day’s breakfast. We went into a bar to ask for some help from the staff in finding bread at 2am, but the bartender so graciously sold us some bread- BAR BREAD!!!!Leggi altro
