In the park we came accross a giant cock, which is also the symbol of Portugal.

Ok so the park seemed like a freakin zoo, how many different birds do you see here?


In the distance (behind the buildings) of this picture you can see the Castle San Joao which we explored the next day


Portugal is as hilly as western Pennsylvania, if not more so.


As usual after a day of walking we have to stop and get refreshments. Portugal loves sweets and this was the first of many delicious desserts (and Sagres)


This gypsy guy and his dog were the best street performers I've seen, the dog is even trained to bark on cue (when it's not holding the money basket).


This is kind of the central square, where we were offered to purchase drugs not once, not twice, but twelve times. Keep it classy Lisbon.


As usual I came on a trip without a hat and got a cool European style hat. So only old men here wear this type but whatever, i'm cool.


Mini stoplight!


Feeling European by the end of the day (or maybe just like a tool).




Next Day
