Thanks d00d, yes you're right about Lisbon, one of Mrs Foxes favourite places. We visited a couple of times while on cruises. The first time we went I noticed the castle at the top of the steep hill, I was so excited I had to go up there. Non of the group fancied climbing the hill so I went up on my own thinking that I'll get some good photos from the ramparts.
After legging it all the way to the top I stood at the castle gates and fumbled about in my pocket for my wallet (there was an admission fee) Bugger! I had left it in the safe deposit in the cabin and forget to pick it up...
I started to make my way down with my camera in my hand when an old lady gestured towards my camera and in sign language I realised she was pointing me to a viewpoint round the corner. I thanked her and followed her directions, I was amazed to come out on the side of the hill overlooking the harbour....
