Arriving in Portugal

It's been a whirlwind past couple of days.  Today is Friday, I arrived on Wednesday.  Since then I drove in Lisbon (not recommended, public transportation is much easier), went to a funky restaurant in Barria Alto with one of my cousins, had bacalhau multiple times, lots of coffee, crossed the river Teju, almost got soaked by a giant wave from a cruise ship while snacking at a cafe (my cousin was not so luck), had a home cooked meal in Lisbon, drove to Coimbra, and now checked into an antique palace.

Here are a few images from my trip…

The table we sat at before the wave from the Cruise ship took these tables out and soaked my cousin Lena... I was quicker and moved out of the way of the splash and only got my feet soaked.
