Lisbon

Another lovely day in Lisbon.

After sleeping in I had a walk around Belem. Lots of people were out and about and I had a late morning coffee in the huge cultural centre where I was able to check my e-mail.

I have tickets for an evening concert featuring
Pat Metheny and Brad Mehldau. Rather than risk getting there late I decided to take an afternoon trip out to the University to check on the route. It was all very straightforward and easily accomplished on the excellent Lisbon metro.

Later in the evening I returned for the concert. It was held in a large hall at the University of Lisbon to the north of the city centre. Pat Metheny on guitar and Brad Meldau on piano, with support on drums and base, were on stage for over two hours and three encores. An excellent concert in a lovely venue.
