Good morning. Last night was a fantastic time with new friends, from Germany, with good food and wine. I was with a new French friend and we found a tapas place – I was all set to be in bed by 10pm last night, I didn’t get home until nearly 1am.
I had clams for the first time, they were fantasco. I could get used to this fresh fish and seafood thing.
My new friends were amazing, they told me all about things to see and do in Munich/Germany, told me to keep in contact and we spoke about meeting again today for Café and/or dinner at the same Tapas place.
My massive American chest has been quite the spectacle for these European hosts to witness. I’m assuming it was my chest they were all staring at, anyway.
It is a beautiful morning in Lisbon, the heat wave broke nearly a week ago and has been in the 70s since. I’m staying through the 30th of June and will take a redeye flight to Budapest. I’ve no idea where I will sleep those few first days of the month but, like the rest of this trip, I will figure it out.
Next time I will get business cards with my travel contact info, I guess traveling is kind of my profession at the moment. It makes me wonder how my Canadian friend Dan has managed traveling for so long – 2 years. I’m not sure that I could do that.
My pack has been so difficult to lug around with all of my care products. I may slim down today. My hips are certainly popping a lot, I’m guessing from supporting the heavy pack up all of the hills here.
This photo is of a vehicle called a funicular. It carries people up and down the hill. Those who use it are likely the smartest of all.
I went back to Sintra two days ago with my new American friend Bryan. He is the only other American that I have enjoyed meeting on this trip.
This is a photo of me by something quite old.
