More Fun Lisbon Pictures.....including John interacting with wildlife

At the botanical garden in Belem they had some extremely friendly ducks. This one ran up to us like a little puppy wagging his feather tail :) John made quick friends... i was so so upset we didn't have any snacks to give them
Traditional Portuguese treat with cinnamon and powdered sugar mmmmmmmm.....
They served them up right out of the oven so they were still warm too all three of our mouthes were watering
This was one of the funniest pictures to take. Sarah and I suggested that John take a picture of him touching the butt... but before he agreed he walked to the front of the statue to determine if it was a man or woman stone statue :) As it was a woman we got to capture this memory forever haha...only my husband
I NEED this dress since I LOVE tomato soup!!!
TIP: a few dashes of hot sauce makes all the difference :)

Photo Shoot :)

John flew out to San Fran to get this picture with the Golden Gate Bridge :o)
.... JK this is it's sister bridge in Lisbon. One day we will make it to CA and put the pictures in a double frame and hang it in the bathroom (feels like a bathroom picture haha)
Two monkeys swinging in a tree. No trees were harmed in the taking of this photo but our hands were raw :)
John tried to cook me...
I love how this picture turned out :) good thing we are both professionals and didn't fall out the windows...very rocky below.

Dinosaurs in London?

In early March the NBA came to Europe to play the first ever regular season game on foreign soil. We saw a very clean and high soring game between the NJ Nets and Toronto Raptors.



We had great seats...here is the crew enjoying the game.


The mascots very really funny and kept changing up their outfits. During one break they came out in inflatable suits and danced around. The best part was when the inflatable Raptor swallowed a cheerleader whole and then waddled away :)


The Brits were very impressed by the Nets' Cheerleaders... i think more than the game haha. They don't have cheerleaders in the UK for sporting events so i think they were pretty excited by the American tradition :)

And after three over time periods the game ended with a Nets WIN!!!
