4 great days in Lisbon, Portugal!!
Lisbon is a quick one and a half hour flight from our little city here in Spain. We rented a car when we arrived and drove off hunting for castles. We only found a few but the Portuguese people were so happy, polite and helpful that we didn´t mind. They seem to love color, beauty and detail. As you can see in the pictures, pastels are their favorite. The architectural palette gave a sense of peace, contentment and appreciation for the simplest of blessings.

After the castle hunt, we just strolled throughout the city, taking in all of the open spaces, artwork, delicious pastries, great restaurants, the waterfront, and efficient mass transit. Lisbon definitely has the easiest subway system we have ever encountered. Everything is straightforward and user friendly and clean, clean, clean!
If you have a chance to visit Europe, don´t skip Portugal because of its size, it is a small, quaint country and well worth the extra time.
