portugal~ lisboa city... day 1

heyya!! its been awhile since the last time me updating this blog. dah almost seminggu balik from this 10-days-portugal-spain trip! i really had a blast!!! n fallen in love wif la-alhambra... such an enchanting place to live.


okey then, i shud start wif the first place that we visit. LISBON @ LISBOA! nice city... we arrived at the airport at about 10++ am. then tarik our luggage around the city to find a place to stay! why?? sebab we didnt make a reservation n luckily we found one.. not bad. about 16€ per nite. cheap huh? hihi...
then went out to the city centre to find the bus station.. need to buy a bus ticket to seville for the next day. its kinda leceh to find the station tho.. ngan ppl there hardly speak englese... huhu.. jumpe the station but the counter was closed! lunch time!! lost tract of the time.. i guess. hehehhee...

so, we make our way to nearest shopping mall~ vasco da gama!did some window shopping then some sight-seeing n had our lunch at McD!! n for the first time, i had fillet o'fish! not bad at all... yup, especially when ur starving n got nothing else to eat. ;p. after lunch, head back to the bus station, get the ticket n back to our hostel. semayang2 n rehat2 kejap then kuar semule..

where to this time?? its time for some 'walk' up the hill to the castello. nie lagi satu acara yg memenatkan... see that pic? its really high up the hill... n quite far tho... n we actually walk up there when we can easily took a bus. but its gonna be the experience that we'll never forget!! hahahha.. planned to watch the sun-set from up there.. n the funny thing is, by the time we arrived, its already dark n the place is closed for visit!! cheh!! adekepatut!!! penat jer!! hehehh.. but then, bile lagi nak jalan cam nie.. hihi.. then we took a bus back to our place...




before balik hostel, decided to do some more walking around the city near our place... make our way to the Commerce Square via the shopping street of Baixa. urm.. do u know that most of the shops here actually displayed almost all their stuff in the shop at the window?? hahhaa.. so, dont waste ur time to enter the shop if u cant find anything u like on the display window. (this is wut a real window shopping means!! i guess! ^_^)


then walk to the opposite way pulak... n jumpe lah Hard Rock Café. one of our friend wanted to buy some stuff for her fren. then balik... n on the way balik, one of the people yg jage kedai tepi jalan all of a sudden yelled something that we couldnt really understand but all we can catch was, '.... bin laden.....' then they gave a hard laugh! wut the heck!! huhuhu...

sampai hostel, wut else to do? tido!! gonna have a long day tomorrow!
