Lisbon holiday

Earlier this month I had a work-related conference in Lisbon, Portugal.  Luckily, David was able to come along and we did a bit of exploring.  I think I am in love with Lisbon (or Lisboa as the locals call it).  Here are a few of the amazing photos.  It seems like every time we turned a corner, we stumbled upon some amazing art deco feature or breathtaking landscape!































 Across the city, the sidewalks are covered with amazing tile designs:


We looked through the front of a building to see this site...what looked like amazing art deco details:


Wow! Look at the entrance to this amazing apartment building:


Lisbon is absolutely enchanting at night! We walked through this amazing park (after a fantastic dinner at a vegetarian restaurant):


The trees in this park were absolutely enchanting:


More pictures to come of my visit to the National Costume Museum and the local crafts flea market!

Have you ever been to Portugal?  I definitely think it is a hidden gem!
