One of the best aquariums I’ve been to is the Oceanarium in Lisbon, Portugal. There are lots of great big views of a giant aquarium filled with amazing sea life.

I love the beginning of a trip.  One never knows what is coming.  Flying over Portugal, it’s immediately apparent that it’s quite different from home.

After a full day of seeing the sights, it was nice to wander down to the water and catch the sunset.

This was the most amazing tree I have seen in a while.  It’s limbs spread shade over a circle that must have been about 100 feet wide.  It’s obviously revered by the locals.  The trunk is protected by a small fence.  And the limbs are supported by a permanent metal structure.

Our latest trip started in Lisbon, Portugal.  This imposing tower is at the entrance to Lisbon’s Tagus River.
