Furry and dizzy ideas, comments & general craziness while dining at the restaurant at the end of the universe

One reason Lisbon is a tiring city for a pedestrian is its hills. But the other reason is this type of pavement. Beautiful, yes. But the little cobbles pull out quite easily so they have to be frequently pushed in again. And all this pulling out and pushing in makes the pavement a very uneven surface. Our legs and feet have to make an extra effort to adapt to walking in non-flat surfaces. No wonder we felt so tired at the end of the day!
Una de las razones por las que Lisboa es una ciudad que cansa al viajero de a pie es sus colinas. Pero la otra razon es este tipo de pavimento. Bonito, si. Pero las piezas tienden a desencajarse y hay que reparar frecuentemente el pavimento. Todo este salir y entrar de los adoquines hace que el suelo no sea liso e uniforme. Pies y piernas tienen que esforzarse mas al caminar sobre una superficie de este tipo. No es de extraniar, pues, que estuvieramos derrotados al final del dia!
