This was our first full day in Lisbon. It was a lot of fun! We rode the famous tram, and walked up and down a lot of hills! There were some great views from the tops of some hills. Here are some pictures to give you an idea of what the city is like!
Ezra couldn't resist meeting this statue and shaking his hand. Actually, I think he is attempting to dance with the man in this picture. :)

Erik was very excited to discover a Burger King with 50 cent ice cream cones. Since we like to get gelato every day when we travel to Europe, one day he decided to let the kids have the 50 cent version, and the adults got to enjoy the more expensive gelato. The kids didn't seem to mind at all! I don't think I have any pictures of our gelato in Lisbon besides one of Isaac, but we found one gelato place that was delicious and had so many fun flavors. My favorite was oreo (I'm very predictable), and Isaac liked the strawberry best. I can't remember everyone else's favorites, but I do remember Erik trying the basil flavored ice cream. It was better than I expected it to be!
In the afternoon, we took a train a little outside the city to the Jeronimos Monastery. It is huge! And has a nice playground nearby, so the kids were happy. Here are some pictures of the chapel and the cloisters.
Our first full day in Lisbon was a lot of fun! (And a lot of good exercise. All those hills!)
