Art and Culture



Since we have the chance, we are making a small early post for today. Based on information from Helena, we went to the Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga, which is in the Lapa district. Last night Helena had told us that a new show - the Grandes Mestres da Pintura: de Fra Angelico a Bonnard - had just opened on Thursday morning. It is the final tour of the Colecção Rau, which is an amazing collection. We will write a little more about this later.

Then a leisurely stroll through part of the Lapa district (western Lisboa), which was an area we had not yet explored.

Since this is our last full day in Lisboa, we have to get organized for tomorrow - packing, planning an exit route, etc.

Another perfect 3.0 today on the Knowmark Weather Scale.
