Home - Monday

Monday our travel day started at 7am in Lisbon and ended 22 hours later at 9pm in San Francisco.
Although we're sad to leave our travel adventure and life of leisure, there are a few things I'm happy to return to - Our bed, Mike's cooking and this guy...

Also looking forward to talking to you all soon!

Lisbon - Sunday - Part 2

We went out looking for a place for dinner. We stopped by a place that our friend David had recommended from when he was here. David, I'm not sure it's open any longer - the sign is still there though.


We ended up at a lovely tapas place - A good way to end our day and trip.



Lisbon - Sunday

A quieter day for us - And our first museum day. Ironic since it's our last day of the trip.
We went to the Gulbenkian Museum. It was started by an American with a love for Portugal and an extensive Art collection. Including a lot of Islamic Art from Turkey - Which seemed like a nice circle in my brain.

This clock from the Louis XV period still works!

I also liked these paintings


Then we had lunch and stopped by the modern art museum. It was MODERN art...



Then we did some last bit of shopping (before we check out duty free tomorrow). And since we'd walked there we took the metro and a funicular to get back to the apartment


Now we figure out how to get everything back in our suitcases!
