Lisbon Day 1 & 2

I finally managed to sort out the pictures from my trip to Portugal..  So let's start with Lisbon. We stayed at the H otel Corinthia  that was an excellent choice so if you find yourself in Lisbon i suggest you to stay there :)  Since we didn't have much time we decided to take the 48h bus tour around Lisbon. It's practicly a hop-on/off bus and you see the entire city in 48h or less. It was quite exhausting, but worth it. And it's really cheap. It cost us only 25 Euro per person and it included 3 different bus tours and a tram tour. Lisbon is beautiful so I went a bit heavy on the pictures... and now just relax and enjoy :) shopping center Inside shopping center Benfica stadium Night view from our room Inside tram ...to be continued.

Madrid

I decided to share my summer trip to Spain and Portugal with you city by city, region by region... Madrid was our first stop. I was impressed because we managed to see all interesting tourist attractions in only one day and by foot! How great is that? So, if you don't have a lot of time and want to visit Madrid just go for it because everything important to see is very near and there are a lot of cheap hostels you can find right at the Plaza Puerta del Sol! We stayed at  Hostal A Nuestra Senora de La Paloma  that was very cheap, but very confortable at the same time! Rooms are not as seen on the pictures at booking.com, but they are very similar + you get candy on your bed as welcome, towels, bathroom is small, but private and they have free wi-fi too. All in all a very nice hostel!  I decided to be as comfortable as I could since it was soo hot that at one point we had to stop and rest and drink a big cold beer :) yeah, I love beer :) sunnies: D&G t-
