Lisbon (Lisboa) from the Queen Mary

Entering Lisbon from the sea brings spectacular views and perspectives of this picturesque city. From my stateroom balcony, I saw hillside neighborhoods, castles, cathedrals, and monuments galore. I even saw Christ the Redeemer Statue (a la Corcovado in RIO). Lisboa is the capital city and largest city in Portugal and is built on 7 hills. It is rich in architecture with Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque and Modern construction found all over the city.

One of the only Portuguese words I remember is obrigada (thank you) so I said it often in town today.
The sail away party was especially nice because of the majestic views from deck.

I will wait till I return home to post more photos. Upload time is very slow at sea.
