I realised I haven’t even posted photos of our last year’s
Europe trip into Facebook. Mainly because my travel companion only passed the
photos from her camera over not too long ago, and after such a long gap, I got
lazy to sort them out.
Anyway, take a look at some here..

Found a very nicely produced short film that I heart too (I LOVE the song!) -
Rua Augusta in Baixa, downtown Lisbon, leading to Praça do
Comércio through the arch. Our guesthouse is very near in walking distance to
this lively street with row of shops, cafes, and occasionally street artists
performing.
The popular tram 28 is the way to go around passing through the old quarters and climbing steep hills.
All the walking up & down hills were good exercise too to tone those leg muscles!
Yes, we stepped into many narrow alleys and I even enjoyed getting lost there.
Great weather for outdoor dining. One of these restaurant even provides blanket for customers who are cold.
Jerónimos Monastery (Mosteiro dos Jerónimos) - Vasco da Gama's resting place.
It's amazing seeing art everywhere, whether you're looking up or down.
Discoveries Monument (Padrão dos Descobrimentos). The monument symbolizes a ship on which embarked famous figures from the prolific era known as the Age of Discoveries. You'll see the Malacca map crafted on the stone too.
