Portugal Day 14: Last Morning

I'll have to warn you in advance. This post is going to be very short and contain only one picture.
I haven't taken many pictures because obviously this was the day of flying back home. The sky was cloudy (the first time in 14 days ) and it wasn't as warm as it had been the days before. At the airport I did a little bit of shopping and bought some bits and pieces. 
 The only picture I took was during the flight back. I just thought that the sprite can looked adorable because it's so tiny.

Portugal Day 13: Rainbow macaroons and 1300 Taberna

 I just had to get a travel size package of macaroons. They were too good and too inexpensive to not buy.
 Did I mention that the packaging was very travel convenient?
 I must have skipped half of the day, or probably just went shopping , as I didn't take any other pictures except for the ones in the evening at 1300 Taberna, which was another shop at LX Factory.
 Jummy, jummy homemade lemonade. With ginger and some other stuff. At first I was slightly sceptical, but it was very good indeed.
 I love the interior design and decoration. BTW those clocks didn't work.
 Ham n cheese platter. Which really filled me up. I ate it with their handmade bread, which was really delicious. One of them even tasted like a cake.
 Mandarin juice, just because you can't drink that everywhere and it tasted amazing.
 My main course, which unfortunately I couldn't finish because I ate all of that bread...I tried very hard to at least eat more than half of everything.
 This is the lamp shaped thing in which the receipt came in. Rustic and odd, yet very much like the interior and setting of the restaurant itself.
 1300 Taberna.
 HELLO WORLD in neon tubes.

Portugal Day 12: Oceanario and healthy drinks

 That day, I decided to go to a family friendly place. The thing with family friendly places is that they aren't only for families with small children but also for couples or just people in general. Here are some impressions: 
 A very elegant and majestic ray.
 The huge and weird looking sunfish, which is definitely an eye catcher because look at it.
 Some really cute and very playful otters, or dog mermaids as the Internet calls them.
 Axolotl. I first thought they were just figurines but turned out they were actually alive and real. I was slightly frightened when the black one move its arm.
 Fluorescent jellyfish, which for some reason looks like a mushtopus (mushroom + octopus, if you were wondering )
 Awwww these unbelievably cute penguins. Get me one of those. In winter. Around Christmas. Because I didn't take one, as I didn't feel christmassy enough. 
 Octopus mug. I would have taken it, if I didn't have to worry about it breaking during transport back home. Airplane luggage is often abused ! ;)
 Healthy drink No. 1 and
 Healthy Drink No. 2
 And a healthy sandwich as well. I feel so healthy.... I had chips with that.....
 Coconut-something drink.This looked great but actually wasn't. It tasted of fatty, oily coconut milk... and it wasn't even sweet. Very unimpressed with this.
