snapshots from lisbon








i was in lisbon a few weeks ago.
i don't have many photos though, as it rained pretty much
non-stop for the whole weekend.

here are a few that i did manage to take.


1
people outside one of the late-night ginginha bars.
( look out for my ginginha special post coming very soon )








2
did i mention how much cork there is in lisbon ?
i like cork so for me this was very interesting... to see all the items
they use it for... wallets, pencil cases, handbags, lighters








3
even baseball caps and those visors that american ladies wear.








4
beer bottles with aprons and mascot heads.
the dragon of porto, the lion of sporting and the eagle of benfica.








5
lisbon is where the nata originates.
these were at the very cafe where the nata was invented.
outstanding !








6
lots of trams in lisbon. 
if you ever go there, you have to go on a tram ride.








7
a chicken pie in a coffee shop.




i realise these photos aren't showing a lot of lisbon.
i did a post about the city a couple of months back if you can be bothered
typing 'lisbon' into the search bar at the bottom of this page.

what i would say is this. if you're in the uk and you like the odd weekend
away in europe and haven't been... i would very much recommend lisbon to you.


it's almost worth it for the nata, ginginha, and trams alone.

obrigado lisboa.
