One-Year Ago (19-June-2014) — Portugal

Gone to See Europe 2014. Day 19: Semester at Sea, Summer 2014 Semester Voyage. Lisbon, Portugal.

We were still at sea while the sun rose over the Atlantic Ocean. The ship arrived in Lisbon, Portugal a bit after noon. As this was still a class day, we were not allowed off the ship after we docked. There were some amazing clouds over Lisbon that afternoon and evening. Individual images can be viewed here.
