I am also going to Lisbon Portugal during SteemFest² but not to attend the conference.  I am going to meetup with my good buddy @luzcypher.  I haven't seen him in a year, since Seattle.  I'm now living outside of Hamburg Germany.  Flights in Europe are extremely cheap so this is a good opportunity to get 7 days of warmer weather and hook up with an old pal at the same time.

I grew up in Italy and Germany and have been to many countries in Europe but never to Portugal so this will be another great travel experience for me too.  I look forward to sharing it with my fellow Steemians.

Lisbon is an old and famous city in Europe so I have been putting together a few of the sites I want to visit while @luzcypher is attending SteemFest².  It's also a great opportunity for me to share some of the wonders of this old city with my fellow Steemians that are unable to make the trip.  Here are a few of the destinations I plan to visit:

* Amoreiras 360º Panoramic View - An open-air platform on the roof of the Amoreiras shopping center offering panoramic views of Lisbon.

* Museu de Marinha - Seagoing history with collections of model ships, maritime artifacts & ornate 18th-century barges in a 15th century monastary.

* Lisbon Zoo - City zoo keeping 300 species, with children's farm & conservation program, plus daily dolphin shows.

* Steam Cave Beach - Just a nice sandy beach to sink my toes in.

Well that's just a start.  If there's something you'd like me to visit you can go to this link on [Google Maps](https://goo.gl/maps/hiT3jK3g2fz) and give me the name.  If it's something I can do I'll visit it for you.  

I plan on doing a daily post while I'm there so look for the many images from sundry activities like eating eating seafood and partaking of my favorite green plant that is legal in Portugal.

I look forward to sharing you from Lisbon Portugal.
