https://goo.gl/maps/MCGXrtwongpM5ZYM9



Lisbon is actually located in Portugal, not Spain! It's a beautiful city with lots to see and do, so I hope you enjoy your visit. Here are some suggestions for how to make the most of your two days:

Day 1:

  • Start your day with a visit to the Belem Tower, a historic tower located on the Tagus River.
  • From there, head to the nearby Jeronimos Monastery, a stunning example of Manueline architecture.
  • For lunch, try some local specialties like pastel de nata (a delicious egg custard pastry) or bacalhau (salt cod).
  • After lunch, take a stroll through the Alfama neighborhood, known for its narrow streets and colorful buildings.
  • In the evening, head to the Bairro Alto neighborhood for dinner and drinks. This area is known for its lively nightlife.

Day 2:

  • Start your day with a visit to the Castelo de Sao Jorge, a hilltop castle that offers panoramic views of the city.
  • From there, head to the nearby Baixa neighborhood for some shopping and sightseeing. This area has plenty of cafes and restaurants where you can grab a bite to eat.
  • In the afternoon, you could take a tram ride to the nearby town of Sintra, which is known for its stunning palaces and castles. However, keep in mind that two days in Lisbon is not a lot of time, so you may want to skip this if you're short on time.
  • Finally, head back to your cruise ship in the evening for your departure.

Of course, these are just a few suggestions and there is plenty more to see and do in Lisbon. Enjoy your trip!

Hopefully, he could get the fully license soon. Jon have been let go by the previous company about a month ago. Not a good time to look for a new job. Trying very hard and watch a lot of TV too.
