Costa da Caparica

Went again to Lisbon today. The plan was to visit the archaeological museum, but it has been closed for a year ..... not a great start.😞
Decided to see "Green street" .... an arty farty area behind the Uni, but were disapointed. Instead we had a coffee beside tram 28 and watched the tourists come down the line.

For lunch we went back to the market and sat down at the same fish stall from yesterday. We orderd a goat cheese with garlic bread and octopus salat.
Yumyum.😋🥰

After lunch went to "pink street" which looked like a road for the lgbt tripple + brigade with small bars and restaurants. It was OK.

We decided to see and ride one of the funiculars ....these are special tram cars that go up very steep hills.
Worked out a tram route and waited for ages at a stop only to be told that it was not in use anymore.🫢 .... we wondered why we were the only once standing at the tram pole.
Went to the next one, only to be told that we may have to wait some time due to a football event (Lisbon won the portugues cup) in the old town that blocked all the streets. We decided to walk up a steep hill to catch the connecting tram.

We were so delighted that the trams were running in the upper town, that we jumped straight in ..... only ...... it went the wrong way.
Fed-up of trams we walked back down-town and called it a day.

Tommorow we will stay at the campsite for a rest or might go to the beach.

Overall, Lisbon was great, but it's time to move on. Next stop the Algarve.Meer informatie
