Lots of sunshine - finally!!



All is well here! The weather finally cleared for good on Wednesday, so I have been enjoying the beach. It's the perfect temperature right now, but I can tell it's going to be nice and hot in the summer. I've also spent a little more time exploring Lisbon - there is a really cool neighborhood called the Bairro Alto that we went to for dinner. It's all of these hilly streets filled with bars and restaurants. I ordered a grilled sea bass and it came whole...I think the people at the restaurant were very entertained watching an American girl try to get the bones out to eat it - I'm sure there's an easy way that I don't know about :) It was great though! Looking forward to trying out more of the restaurants and bars in that area. Also went back to my favorite chicken piri piri place - definitely becoming regulars there...it is so good! This weekend planning on going out in Lisbon and then on Monday we're renting a car and hitting the road - taking a trip to Paris and Amsterdam! So excited - I've never been to either place, so I'm really looking forward to it. I am sure I'll have tons of pictures when I get back! xo
