Portuguese seaside

 Today a lovely little souvenir from yet another lovely day in Lisbon, Portugal.

It had been boyfriends birthing day so we took train outside of the city (one we figured out the ticket machine) where we first dined on best sushi ever (and affordable) with way too much sangria.

Then we walked to the beach where no belly fat would stop me from swimming....like at least three times in one afternoon....

I took a doll and she seem to like it and fit rather well...

Yes, that will do...

Pretty in girly blue

Let's shed some layers....

Marvellous...

Can I please have your bandana, sir....

Ah yes, ideal...

Portugal - Lisbon city

 Hahaha, yes - her again....

I guess she just hangs around outside of doll's quarters and I keep grabbing her last minute:-) 

Also, I must say - ethnically she's such a good match for a modern day Lisbon crowd...

Enjoy - my romantic Lisbon Vacations (my Leo boyfriend's first birthday together) <3

Uhh ohhh so hot...blinding, can't see what I'm doing...

Uh oh sunshine...yes, focus!

Praça Dom Pedro IV

Time for few close-ups on Santa Justa Lift :-)

Peculiar neo-gothic in steel!

few actual views;

..and then my all time favourite - off the bitten track and through real people's lives of Bairro Alto

...and Lisbon we all love and expect...

My real-life Steven LOL

Shade, pink, tiles!

More city brake?

It's a wrap....
