The last day for me in Lisbon, or rather Portugal, began quite early, as Camina had a relatively long stage to cover today and the temperatures were heading towards 30 degrees.
Through the tours of the last few days, we had already completed the first part of the route, so the metro brought us close to

We spent today at the Expo grounds, where Lisbon welcomed its guests in 1998 in the rather new district around the Oriente high-speed train station on the banks of the Tagus.
We also arrived by train from Sete Rios station.
The Expo grounds' main attractions include an ocean museum, a cable car along the

The most beautiful tour in Lisbon so far led us in warm weather over the green Monsanto hill to Belem, the district that should definitely be included when visiting the city.
After we had passed through the valley floor of the motorway and railway line, we were able to enjoy the aqueduct in its full beauty

Due to the long tour description from the previous day, we didn't set off until noon today.
However, we took public transport to the start again today.
The actual destination was the street art district "Graca", but without giving away the suspense, we didn't find many painted house walls.
First, however

An eventful day lies behind us... Who else can claim to have changed accommodation twice in a total of 4 different apartments during their vacation?
Yesterday, the landlady had discovered water damage and asked us to move into the neighboring apartment. When we returned from our excursion today, the next

Today's day tour took us to 2 landmarks in Lisbon, both of which could be considered plagiarisms of other landmarks, but are no less impressive and are much closer...
The "25 de Abril" Bridge was modeled after the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, but spans the 2.2 km wide estuary of the Tagus River

The second day began with a supermarket shopping trip, as the small mini-markets the day before had no desired spreads for breakfast.
In addition to the tour description of the 1st day, we only started the round today around noon.
Since we were the only tourists for a long time yesterday, today we moved

Camina and Jesus are on a joint discovery tour again - this time as a city tour in Lisbon before Camina starts a Camino de Santiago towards Porto and Jesus has to go home without any remaining vacation.
The first little adventure already began yesterday with the arrival...

This morning, still sleepy, we let a coin decide whether to get up and go for a hike before the heat sets in, or to keep sleeping...
And we won a tour into the forest with "tails"... 😃.
Initially, we went through Radebeul Ost in the direction of the Bilz Sanatorium.
After the small ascent, we had missed

The trilogy of an exciting and quite challenging weekend, in addition to the 120 km bike journey and 27 km of paddling, includes today's bike ride back from Werben (near Burg im Spreewald) to Dresden.
I could only enjoy the namesake cucumber ice cream once due to time constraints. The hotel's attempt

It had already been requested multiple times that Jesus walk on water. Today was finally the day.
What looks like a paddle in the pictures is actually just my counterweight on the tightrope walk on the Spree arms... 😂
We started with the 2-person kayak at 10:00 AM at the Leinenweber boathouse/Spreearm

Today was the traditional cucumber ice cream tour, which leads every year at the end of July from Dresden to the Spreewald to enjoy a cucumber ice cream after approx. 120 km.
This year, Camina is participating for the first time, so we will not just stop at the ice cream stand and ride back as before

And as luck would have it, the route looks like a wild boar on the run... 😃

Short city tour through the beautiful Görlitz with market square, Neisse bridge to Zgorselec and a detour to the cathedral.
Despite it being Sunday, we rattled the Jesusbäckerei in vain, but then took some exquisite mustard (with ginger-lemon) with us... 😃
