In 1975 I worked in Lisbon for a wonderful month, and loved every minute of it. I recognise every one of your pictures, though sadly I wasn't enterested in photography then. Any more?? Caroline
The Portuguese were the first European explorers to discover South Africa although they never colonised it. Bartholomeu Dias rounded the Cape in a storm in 1488 and landed in what is now called Mossel Bay. Anyway, just wanted to pay homage to the Portuguese exploeres.
Lisbon, a luxury as seen in your photos, light, color and majestic buildings own lifestyle of their kings. A beautiful walk. A greeting and thank you very much.
When I was young, the schools emphasized the Portuguese explorers. I almost became emotional, looking at all these great explorers on the statue. (Please don't ask me to identify them all.) I guess my favorite is Vasco de Gama. Margaret
Beautiful set of shots, Margaret! I should know the name of everyone on the Monument to the Discoveries, but I'm afraid I will miss one or two... :-)))

Some really nice buildings. I've never been to Portugal so it was nice to see some photos of Lisbon.
It's a beautiful country, i love it and your shots make me want to return there! DeeBee x
Portugal is one Country I haven't been too. Should have slipped over while in Spain but didn't. Gorgeous pictures.
So sorry I haven't been here of late. My little 4 legged girl passed away last month and I have been sad and not doing much.
See you next time. xo
