A lot more walking today, after Dave started the day with a run. We took a leisurely (not really), 8 mile stroll to a monument on the river that is old and has very intricate carvings of sailors / diplomats / religious dudes? If we were better tourists we'd read the signs and learn more about what we were looking at. Regardless, it was big and awesome. There was another monument that was even older (I think from the 1500's) and had even more intricate carvings. When you're around any somewhat touristy spot in Lisbon, there's someone trying to sell you a selfie stick every three feet. We resisted and took our photos the old fashioned way.
Then we walked by a cool looking museum, through a botanical garden, and stopped for lunch for the biggest piece of cod that I've ever seen. Portions are huge here and it may be the first time in my life when I don't feel the need to salt my food. The seafood is delicious and Dave is in pork heaven. Also, booze is super cheap - a glass of wine is about $2.
We also rode a funicular down one of the many Lisbon hills. Not quite sure about the difference between a funicular and a trolley - you can ride both in Lisbon, but funicular is more fun to say.
In honor of our honeymoon, we've been taking photos of hearts and lovey dovey things around Lisbon. Our host arranged flower pedals in the shape of a heart on our bed when we arrived - pretty darn cute.
