Lisbon

We made it to Lisbon in the evening and walked through the city.  Brooklynne flew in to join us and the next night Rachael's sister, Natasha, flew in too!  We hit all the top sites.

The Harshbargers made this but we didn't wake up early enough




Time Out Market
We fought the crowds and got some yummy Indian food and the kids ate several pizzas.





Torre de Belem


Monument to the Discoveries












Praca do Rossio




Santa Just Lift
The line was too long so we just walked to it.

Brooklynne took us out to listen to Fado music while the Harshbargers watched our kids.
 Fado is the haunting music that wafts out from the small bars of the Bairro Alto and Alfama districts of LisbonFado comprises of a mournful sounding solo singer accompanied by a classical Portuguese guitar. ... No visit to Lisbon is complete without experience this traditional and emotional style of music.









We ate this chicken EVERY NIGHT!  We still think of it and our mouth waters.
