Portuguese Rooflines

Up on our hotel roof at sunset. Now in Lisbon after our "Night Train to Lisbon" and finding it very different. Not very tourist friendly, little English spoken.

Three good things:
1. The hotel bar specialised in gins - is that Portuguese? I chose Hendrix which had rose petals and cucumber floating in it - getting my vegetables?
2. Weather a bit more bearable - not so hot.
3. A bidet in the bathroom!

great roof lines. Hendricks has got to have cucumber - not sure about rose petals.
