On the 7th, I spent 32 hours. Spain was 7 hours later than China, and Portugal was 1 hour later than Spain. I adjusted my watch twice, ate three meals of staple food on KLM's plane during the whole journey (I had to eat in different ways, especially when I was under high pressure), had three snacks (because I had an extra meal during the flight) After innumerable drinks (replenishing water under high pressure and vacuum), I finally transferred from Shanghai to Amsterdam Airport in the Netherlands to Lisbon in Portugal (12 hours international flight + 4 hours airport transfer + 2 hours European inland route). It's already midnight to Lisbon. Fortunately, the hotel is not far away, and the room features are basically not there. It belongs to the category of ordinary clean hotels.
A few meals a day on the plane. It's silly to eat

2 / 8 slept for a few hours and went to the hotel for the first breakfast of Spanish Portuguese. The mushroom, tomato and soybean, roast sausage and rice were not bad, and then a portion of fruit, whole wheat bread, butter and coffee. With a ray of sunshine outside, we start at nine o'clock. The first stop is belenta. It's said that it's snowing in Shanghai, but it's still very hot in Lisbon. The monument to the discoverer is nearby. You can go directly to Jeronimos church from the tunnel on the other side of the monument. The church is free, and the museum charges extra. You can walk along the left hand side of the church to the street with many cafes, But this time we went straight to the most authentic pasties de Belem, which was opened in 1837. It's only 1.8 euro to eat a cup of espresso and an egg tart in the shop. The taste is really different. There are a lot of porcelain prints pasted in the shop, which is very beautiful.

We went to the old city near Liberty Avenue and Arc de Triomphe, which are full of medieval style. It's just the end of the winter discount in Europe, many of them are 50%. After lunch, we went to the most Western point of Europe, ROCA Cape. The scenery is magnificent and the wind is so strong that I have the impulse to fly. I bought porcelain engravings and cork postcards in the shop. Unfortunately, the mailbox here can deliver them, but there are no stamps for sale. From Rocca point to Lisbon, I passed by Cascais. After stopping for a while at the other side of the fortress, I strolled in the shopping mall of Cascais for half a day. After having a Portuguese style meal (salad + fried fish steak + fish meal + cheese baked mushroom + beef stewed potato + red wine) in the restaurant, I went back.

2 / 9 leave Lisbon through the cable-stayed bridge and head for Seville. Jesus is bathed in the morning light. After driving for four and a half hours and stopping twice, I just crossed the time difference of one hour and arrived in Spain. I spent the Chinese New Year in Spain. Because of the Schengen relationship of the European Union, the concept of border has become a geographical indication that has not been demolished. After crossing the bridge linking the two countries, I came to the place called hola.

Follow up: on May 28, 2013, the photos of the trip to Portugal were included in the micro photo column of City Pictorial to commemorate it.
