Ericeira, Portugal

This winter, we had the opportunity to visit Ericeira, Portugal.  We stayed in the beautiful Vila Gale hotel right on the water.  The sea was beautiful and the waves crashing against the rocks were incredible.  Here are a few pictures.  This is definitely worth a visit.

The Lost City

While we walked around the hillside to St. George's Castle in Lisbon, we came across this area which looked like a forgotten part of the city.  Maybe it was someone's estate or something, but there was nothing left except for the outer walls.  Some of the graffiti was beautiful.

The Lisbon Cathedral

As soon as we exited the train station, I spotted one of the towers down an alley and we walked straight towards it.  Unfortunately, we skipped a lot of stuff on the way, so we ended up back-tracking several times.  Still totally worth it.

Cable Car

We spent last Saturday walking around Lisbon, Portugal.  It is a beautiful city full of hills and history.  Our visit was brief, but I long to go back and spend more time.  We were not smart enough to take the cable car up the hill, we walked everywhere we went.
