We have walked this city, and oh my!!!!
Our devices are already filling up with a bazillion pictures of awesomeness
that will take us months to share.
What a delight!
I'm feeling a trip by the LX Factory ArtAtSteemfest space is in order today, so I'm going to post these pics real quick so share with you a little sip of our journey, before heading out to gather with the Steemian family.
This City is full of art---right up my alley, so to speak.
Even the artists are art!!!
Sidewalk cafes are the norm here.
It's rare to see a McDonalds or a Starbucks, which mostly seem to be housed in the transit stations.
The architecture here is really magnificent.
Such a huge contrast from what we see in the states in any city I have been to.
This is a breakfast scene from one of our hostel windows.
Super quaint for a manmade view.
Stairs are extremely common in these old buildings as the main mode of up and down.
People here obviously must be in better shape than in the US,
where stairs are generally through a back door away from the lobby.
This hostel had one of the old-time elevators with the double metal doors.
Street vendors are not as common as they are, say in India, but this one is well visited by the locals.
This is our first hostel -- our room on the top floor to the left.
A picture does not do justice to the intricacies of the carvings and statues prevalent here.
in her bubbly glory!! What a joy it is to travel and spend my life with her!!!!
in his fine fashion -- ready for EVERything...
--donning his dapper Steemit logo hat!
The EVER amazing thinks of EVERything!!! Not only does he think of it, he DOES it, including personalized visits, one-on-one connections, immediate responses, and all of it shared with a jovial, heartfelt smile.
Pastries are definitely on the top of the menu in Portugal. We all gotta have our "creamy and delicious" ness!!!
The ArtAtSteemfest space should be quite active today with workshops, collaborations and community support.
I'll bring you more as the beauty unfolds and the opportunity knocks!!
