sorry that all the photos from Portugal are of a very bad quality, I did not have any camera with me :( I bought just a Kodak camera for a single use (for 7 euros, LOL)
with this toy I could not pretend that I am a photographer, and I could not use the zoom and flash, just walk there and back, obeying the sun :o)

if you know the name of the beer garden next to a church, please, remind me.. thanks! there was so pleasant atmosphere! and the sounds of the church bells were very nice

St. George's Castle overlooks Lisbon in all sides.

Pros and Cons
  • Pros:would be a wonder of the world if people took care about it; has charm of the towns built in hilly area; cheap good food by the way :o)
  • Cons:too many buildings fall apart, dirty streets, many people do not speak English, even busdrivers and policemen do not.., no gentlemen, chaos, not safe in the night!
  • In a nutshell:probably I had just a bad luck :o)
