amazing lisbon!

just back from an amazing trip to lisbon, portugal with the hubby. four days of cultural overload and one much needed beach day! I asked 'him indoors' which three words he'd use to sum up the trip, his answer - Sun, Port (we drank a lot!) and hilly! Hilly would also have been one of mine - my calf muscles have been punished! As for the other two, I'd have to narrow it down to Tiles (it's ridiculous how many photos I now have), and party! 
We arrived for the festival of saint anthony, which is a brilliant mix of carnival parades, celebration and fun. most streets are decorated with streamers and lights and there is music, drinks and bbqs grilling fresh sardines... Needless to say we had a great time!
Lisbon is a truly great city that I'd recommend to anyone, with amazing architecture, bars, restaurants, and people. We did so many fantastic things, too many to mention, but have a look at the photos below which capture some of the trip. Now it's back to saving for the next adventure! X
