Bus trip to Lisbon and more..

We traveled to Lisbon Portugal by bus. It took us most of the day we arrived at 1:30 AM on the 2nd of June.. There were no taxis to be found at that time of the morning, so we googled our hotel and began to walk with our luggage dragging behind us. We walked through dark allies and unfamiliar territory. However, we laughed most of the way. We found our hotel quite easily. We are in a real hotel this time. Ha! Ha!
We are located on the 10th floor and are very comfortable, with a beautiful view of the city of Lisbon. We got to sleep in this morning and then took a taxi to Old Town. Apparently, that's the place to be. We ate lunch, which we enjoyed very much. And then we did a little shopping. We stopped by another beautiful church and again took lots of pictures.
Then we moved on to St. George's castle, Castel de Sao Jorge, was built by kings of portugal, most notably Ferdinand l.
Since the 12th century, the castle has variously served as a royal place, a military barracks, home of the Tombo National Archive, and now as a national monument and museum. It was amazingly magical.
This evening, we took an unexpected sunset cruise. They served beer and wine and had some really good music on the whole time we were cruising. And it was absolutely wonderful.
Today was a good day!Read more
