Monday follow-up in the studio.

And a nice walk up the Miradouro da Senhora do Monte!

Later took the tram to discover the area around MAAT – Museu de Arte, Arquitetura e Tecnologia. Such a lovely sunset by the Tejo river.

Quarta-feira.

Wednesday. The most beautiful day in the whole month. Went to my favorite park in Lisboa: Tapada das Necessidades.

Painted yellow-green palm leaves and pink walls en plein-air.

Just awesome. Summer feeling in February.

Lovely Lisboa.

Thursday.

Remember just an early morning and then an evening walk.

Cool streets of Intendente area, blue and empty in the morning—but full and colorful at night!

Happy jumping. A seixta-feira.

Excited about the trip to the south—heading for Faro and Lagos, driving a van along the coast of Algarve.

On Saturday we took the train from Estação Oriente (Gare do Oriente) –

Stunning station building, designed by Santiago Calatrava (that‘s why it reminds me of the Gare de Liège in Belgium!), which was finished in 1998.

I must say staying in the lower part (subway level) feels like being in a bunker. Coming up on the platform makes you instantly happy 😊.
