Lisbon - Portugal

Hope you like our photo blog there are 35+ other posts under 'blog archive' link on the right.

Lisbon 15th - 18th Sept 2014
We decided to add 4 nights in Lisbon to our Europe trip for a taste of Portugal. It was an interesting city but the first time we felt a little concerned after dark with lots of people hanging around in the streets on their own. Some were selling drugs others well not so sure. There was so much graffiti it was a real shame that kids could devalue their city so much as there are some magnificent buildings.

Some serious hills in Lisbon called for some serious trams
Castle on top of the hill is a real landmark

Wine is so cheap

Took a 35 minute train to Cascais a beach town

How about a wine from 1875
