M went via metro to collect race kit and book a wetsuit for the swim in 17 deg water on sunday. Meanwhile T walked uphill to a close by pool and did her training.
Then downstairs for coffee and off to discover the 300 year old aquaduct. Fun and informative. After 20km of up and down (all of lisbon is either up or down) we got back home and had dinner and chilled. Big day tomorrow. Off to Belem.
Aquaduct. 300 years old survived the great earthquake. We walked along it today and followed its remains through the city where it reappears as an arch over a street, or a pond in a park or a fountain in a square. A nice treasure hunt.
The rain stopped and the light hit the castle just as we arrived.
So much history love the old narrow streets and tram always thoughtishould have been born a couple hundred years ago.good luck with the triathalon and 17degrees is'nt cold
