PORTUGALLLLLL!!!<\/p>\n

Yesterday we got off of the plane after 15 hours of travel – where all we did was play video games (not interesting). After the plane we were too tired to do much except walk to the apartment and go to the grocery store. We got Jello and sandwich materials, among other things. Today though, on our first day in Lisbon, Portugal, we had lots of fun.<\/p>\n

We went to the castle of S\u00e3o Jorge (St George). We toured the courtyard and Dad, my brother Fisher, and our au pair, Emily went onto the inner walls. I sat in the sun and read.<\/p>\n

Then we walked around and saw a building that looked like the Notre Dame. Portugal copies like,\u00a0every\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>famous monument that I know of. I.e., there was a Portuguese Golden Gate Bridge, Christ The Redeemer, Arc of triumph, etc. etc. Aaaaaanyways, There was a Notre Dame copy that looked very similar.<\/p>\n

This is kinda what it looked like. Oh wait, this is exactly what it looked like. It’s a photo. And there are trams in front.<\/p>\n

We also saw lots of Tuk Tuks. I have mentioned those before:<\/p>\n
