Addendum: Portugal Surfcamp - Lisboa

Since we flew into Lisboa for our Surfcamp last September, we planned to enjoy the city for 2-3 days before heading down to the South Coast and Algarve. As Christian likes to put it: "Lisboa is simply "unschick" (~ unfancy)"... it is a city with a very special flair... the Tejo delta gives you the impression you're already on the sea; the inner city - long time not taken care of - has a somewhat morbid charme; you can easily get lost in the narrow alleys of the Alfama (Old town) and also spent the whole night out partying in the new "In-Quarters" where you have many designer stores, restaurants, clubs...

A few impressions...

Alfama - the Old town


Fish in the display... *yummy*!

Riding THE famous LINE 28

Seaman memorial - Lisboa still lives with a great longing for the sea and the ancient glory as a seaman nation.

An elevator between streets... otherwise you would find tons of steep, narrow stairs in the inner city. I mean, more that you already find ...

English up-fresher

In Zeiten zunehmender Globalisierung und Internationalisierung ist die englische Sprache in Unternehmen und Organisationen essentiell geworden... ein kleiner "Up-Fresher" kann also NIE schaden! Deswegen heute ein kleines Wochenend-Quiz...

Testen Sie Ihr Englisch und finden Sie die zugehörigen deutschen Aussagen! ;)

That have you you so thought!

Give not so on!

Heaven, ass and thread!

Of again see!

Us runs the water in the mouth together.

I only understand railstation...

My dear Mister singing-club!

Now we sit quite beautiful in the ink...

Your English is under all pig!

Slow going is all truck's beginning.

Now can come what wants.

- to have a jump in the dish

- to have much wood before the cottage

- to have not all cups in the board

- together-hang-less

If you think, you can beat me over the ear, you are on the woodway.

I'm heavy on wire.

With you is good cherry eating...


Any additions?! Just go ahead... ;) Enjoy your weekend and the warm, sunny spring (That's what we currently have.).
