Jan. 18: Our Arrival in Lisbon, the Best Day Yet

We make it to Lisbon, and the trip really comes alive. 

Gaining an hour from Spain helps extend the day, and sunny warm weather gives a big boost of energy.

We depart Madrid, fly to Lisbon, make it into the city from the airport, check in to our hostel, and still have time to ride innumerable trams, metros and more. We explore the city centre and start piecing the puzzle together of what is this place and where everything is.

Lisbon is a stunning city full of squares, monuments and majestic buildings. It has an old-world feel that is well worn and much loved. The modern has not quite crept into the old city centre, instead it's quirky trams, rumbling through the streets, multicoloured buildings and 18th century architecture.

It is both affordable and good value. The kids had a great time on the trams, elevadors and running through the many parks and terraces.

All this in one day. 28 more in Lisbon ahead of us!
