Lisboa--a stroll in the park

A stroll in the Park...near the Basilica Estrela.

A ship at sea design in the pavement in the park. A testament to the sailing and explorer history of Porltugal.

The direct flight from Washington,D.C. was only about six and a half hours...about the same time from D.C. to California with the obligatory stop on the way.

Although on the Atlantic, feels like a Mediterranean climate, especially since the heat wave ended yesterday. Sometimes my Spanish works, sometimes an Italian word works better. But Portuguese pronunciation differs from both of them. Time to learn some 

Portuguese!
