New Years in Portugal

For New Years I visited Katinka, who shared many adventures with me in Hawaii, and her boyfriend Fabian in Cascais, Portugal. Chris came all the way from Hawaii to hang out with us, and Fabian's friends Floppy, Boris, and Felix were there as well.


Cascais, Portugal, located just west of Lisbon

Chris is excited


Boris, Floppy, and Fabian heading out to the water


Does that look like fun or what?

Good one, Fabian!




-Exploring the coast-

Katinka and I went for a run along the beach north of Cascais

To our own little swimming beach

-Into Lisbon -


Chris, Katinka and I spent a day exploring Lisbon. We took the train from Cascais into the city - this is the view from the train.

Like a perspective drawing in 9th grade art class

The sidewalks of Lisbon were all very intricately designed cobblestone
-Lisbon in tiles -
Many of the buildings in Lisbon were decorated in the most amazing ceramic tiles
