Day 20- Last day in Lisbon

Took it easy this morning after touring and seeing sights for the past few days. Meandered around shops, of which there are plenty, bought a few things but nothing spectacular. Mez had a hair cut as you do in an unknown city with an unknown hairdresser - outcome not too bad.

It was a day of chilling and getting organised to move on tomorrow. 

Decided to have a nice dinner somewhere different as there are restaurants in every nook and cranny. We stumbled onto a gem called Bellalisa Elevador. It takes it name from the very tall elevator that takes you up to a viewing area of the city. Tourists queue for ages to get the lift and if you go to where this restaurant is situated you can bypass all the queues and buy your ticket and walk only one level up and you are on the top. 

Fantastic views of every aspect of the city. The castle overlooking the township below.

   View from the restaurant to the streets below and an usual bar where you can sit on deck chairs on artificial grass and look over the rooftops.

   View to the river.

    Rossio Square from above.

   Back to just outside our hotel and one last pic with Fernando Pessoa, Portugal's famous writer and poet.

    And the last glass of wine watching the very talented Calypso type band doing their thing with many revellers dancing in the middle of the street.

Lisbon is fantastic, personally I prefer Porto just because it is smaller and easier to get around. So far loving Portugal.
