Lisbon

Portugal!!  So this is only two months late. I went to Lisbon the first week of October to run the Rock and Roll Half Marathon with my running partners from Atlanta - Beth and Bruce.  Beth's boyfriend Scott came along for the trip as well and the four of us had a great time! 
 
Lisbon was so sunny and beautiful!  We took a bus tour around the city the first day and here are some highlights:
 
It is a little difficult to see, but the outside of this building is covered in small hand-painted tiles.  They were everywhere and amazing!
Also, they had the most beautiful sidewalks in Portugal that I have ever seen!  Everywhere they had these black and white paver-type of bricks making up the sidewalks.  This was in a particularly lovely boulevard through the center of the city, but even the regular sidewalk had them.
