We spent the last 5 days in Lisbon...we rented an apartment in Bairro Alta(that's buck on the balcony)...so we were in the heart of the action. We spent a lot of time exploring the city...we visited st jeromes Monastary, alfama neighborhood, st george's castle, the oceanarium where buck and I saw our first mola mola ...we just happened to be in Lisbon during the Vogue's fashion night out which amounted to the biggest street party with the hottest, best dressed women I've ever seen in my life...Buck was quite impressed too!! We day tripped to Sintra...saw the castle of the moors, pena national palace, visited quinta de regulareira(my favorite), visited the westernmost point in europe(cabo da roca).
It was a great trip...I'd recommend visiting Portugal to anyone looking for a european experience a little off the beaten path featuring great weather, awesome food...friendly attractive locals...and tons of interesting things to see and do.
