Pavement update

This will be mainly a photo session of the blog.

Firstly, a suburban train waiting in a Lisbon station.

Secondly, a tram at early evening. I'd just left yesterday evening Mass at Our Lady of the Incarnation and at 7.30pm, the streets were crowded with workers going home.

And evening Mass.

Last night's dinner:

Fantastic little restaurant called O Caracol.

Began with an aperitif made from the Muscat grape. I like these cold sweet aperitifs. This was similar to my much liked Pineau de Charentes.

The first course was compulsory! But was very good: thinly sliced black pudding with orange segments and soft brie like cheese.

Will definitely try this combination when back home; especially, slicing the black pudding more thinly.

Second course was a visual triumph.

Octopus and boiled potatoes

Creme brulee to finish

Brilliant meal.

Cost per head including wine: £23

Breakfast this morning in hotel.

Large breakfast of pancakes, banana fritters, ham, cheese, fruit etc etc means no need for lunch or other snacks.
