By far the best vacation I have ever taken. I saw all that I essentially wanted to see, and now here are a few photos (there are TWO pages worth of photos on my site)...
Torre de Belém
Castelo São Jorge
Padrão dos Descobrimentos
Cascais, west of Lisbon
Graça
Panteão Nacional
And just to answer the one question that a lot of members here will ask... ;)
Again, tons more photos on my site. After trekking all over Lisbon, it's now time for me to get some much needed sleep. =)

Amazing set of pictures James. I just checked out the ones on your site and I must say they are very nice as well. As for the last photo, I mean, Who can't recognize that amazing head of hair. That is none other than Joao David! I'm glad you had a great time James. You are very fortunate to have had the opportunity to travel to the Iberian Peninsula. Thanks for sharing these great pictures with us.
good luck and rest well

Thanks, Chris. Yes, I'm spending my weekend resting up now...=)

Hi James,
As always, you take the most amazing photos, and I am so happy for you that you had a chance to experience such a wonderful vaction in this beautiful part of the world filled with so much history. Also, your hair just keeps getting better and better all the time, you look like a real longhair now! Of course, I am delighted that you had a chance to meet up with Joao. The cool thing that I notice in this photo of the two of you is how similar your hair types are. You have similar thickness, colour, and waviness (yours may be SLIGHTLY straighter), and with more length, you could be "hair twins"!
Take care,
David
Thank you very much, David! Hair twins, eh? Hmm... =) Anyways, I had a great time. Hope you're doing well.
-James
Hi again James,
Yes, hair TYPE twins! (thickness and wave pattern) (I admit that the length IS different right now) Although your hair may be a lot shorter than Joao's now, by the time you have reached 3 years or just past, (that is whereJoao is now), your hair WILL look a lot like his is now, mark my word!
David
Hey James,
Wow looks like you had a great vacation! I'll have to check out the other pics on your site as this small sample is fantastic not to mention how awesome your hair looks at this stage.Well you certainly are going on some great trips lately as I'm getting the urge to take a vacation.LOL.Anyway it looks as if your hair is behaving itself well during your trip so I guess the conditions are hair friendly there.Thanks for posting all your pics not from today but in the past as well.Lookin' Great!!Mark
Thanks a lot, Mark. Well, I hope you do get a chance to go somewhere fun soon. We all need to get away now and then. Stay well and again, thank you for the comments. =)
-James
Great pictures. I was in Porto recently and that was a lot of fun. I'll have to get to Lisbon at some point to check it out.
Thank you, Liko. I've heard a lot about Porto and would love to visit sometime. Perhaps another vacation in the making... ;)

Hi James,
Well off travelling and you do get around a bit, and looks like you had a great time in Portugal and a lovely set of pictures.
So is it a MLHH competition to spot the longhair that is with you!
Cheers,
John.B
Haha, well, I dunno if it'd be much of a contest. Either way, thank you very much, John. I appreciate your kind words. =)

Hi James,
Glad to see all these pictures. The castles and discovery monument are both great. Well, there is no mistaking who's on the left of the last picture. Tell him, "Bom dia, ou boa noite, e Muitos abracoes" from me.
Be sure to go and listen to some fado music before you leave. I know you'll love it. Have a safe return as well.
Bragi
Unfortunately I'm back in the US now, but I think he got the message. ;) Thank you very much for the comments, Matt. Take care, man. =)

Souvenirs... souvenirs... umm... oops. =D Nah, I bought a few things, but was really limited to luggage space unfortunately. Thanks, Nic, for the comments. =) (I like the sweater too, btw)
-James
Wow
Looks beautiful in Lisbon & Yup i wish I was there to Excellent update to James
Axel
Thanks, Zig. It was absolutely gorgeous the entire time I was there. Even when it rained one afternoon, it was still charming. =)
-James
Lovely pictures James, such history and grandeur. Your hair is looking superb as always and I'm really pleased that things are cool for you right now.
Take care, Dave
Thanks, man. It's a great past few weeks, and I'm glad I can share it with all of you guys. =)
-James
As always, your great smile, and ever longer hair with a nice backdrop. What a quant place Lisbon is, like stepping back in time. Beautiful art and architecture.
Yes, we would be asking about João David, since you two planned to meet up. You both have very similar hair color and texture. He is what you can aspire to be, in time.
I posted a first ever picture thread, it'a a bit more than half-way down the board now, if you can get a chance to look at, please do.
Carol
Thank you very much, Carol. Your photos are quite nice too! You have very beautiful hair. Thanks for sharing! =)
-James
Great set of pictures James! This outdoes all your other pictures for location. (Sorry Canada) I'm so glad you were finally able to make the trip. It looks like you had a good time and to meet a fellow longhair is a bonus.
Take care,
Bruce
(Your hair is lookin' darn good, btw)
LOL Yeah... not sure Windsor ever held much light to these photos, to be honest. =) Either ways, thank you very much, Bruce. It was an excellent journey. Take care. =)
-James
Great pics James! Portugal seems like a really nice country, and i bet it was fun to meet up with Joao as well:)
Take care!
Simon
It was a very fun country to experience. I loved it! And yes, we had a very good time together. =) Stay well, Simon. Talk to you later...
-James
Hi James
I was going to reply to your post long ago but got busy at work.
Hopefully your still checking your thread.
Those are some excellent photos and the weather looked perfect.
Lisbon looks like a beautiful city I imagine you have more pics are you going to put them up on the web eventually?
The Jetlag can be brutal although going over you are a bit excited so that sort of blunts it a little but coming back it just floors you for a few days.
Glad you had a nice time and if I may ask have you been to any other parts of Europe?
Take Care
Kevin
Hey Kevin! This was my first time in Europe, and I have posted plenty more photos on my site (click on my avatar). It was absolutely gorgeous the entire time I was there, even the one time it rained. Still a certain beauty about it...
Anyways, take care. =)
