Around Lisbon on a bus
... out in a peaceful manner.
On my way back to Oriente station, I had a walk around the Aquarium to take a few photos of things I hadn't noticed before and I enjoyed the ocean breeze sitting at the shore, listening to music and pondering about this and that. I thought I would get back to the hotel earlier for a change, but didn't stick to that plan again as there are always so many interesting things to do here, like ...
