Adios Lisbon

Eager to make the most of my last day (and unable to sleep thanks to nearby snoring Germans, I woke up early and took the train to the coastal town of Cascais (Cash-cay). I was going to rent one of the free municipal bikes but I lazily just wandered aimlessly, read at a cafe and cooled off my poor burnt feet in the Atlantic. I've been so excited to eat some of the Senegalese/Cape Verdean good in Lisbon but I stupidly saved my treat for Sunday. Every one of the tiny restaurants I miraculously found was closed. Disappointed and starving, I scarfed down a brie and bacon baguette and packed and napped. It was a quiet, sangria-filled last night at the Oasis.
