Laura will set up her Laura Fortune designs at a young Art Market in Alfama. Her all-handmade medal & enamel creations are always a conversation starter and so beautifully made. She will spend most of the day there with her artist friends but first we will have breakfast with her friends Jim & Nikki from NYC.
Nikki is styling a pair of Laura’s earrings! Sweet.
Jim and Nikki wanted to see her studio. Her work is pretty amazing!
I went back to the apartment for a bit, did some laundry and hung it out the window to dry. That’s how we do it here in 🇵🇹 Portugal. Fresh.
Then off to visit the Museum Nacional de Azulejo. We would call it the Tile Museum. Such an incredible historical museum. I have several pictures of tiled buildings some were even 3-D. I loved them and wow the lasting colors, here’s one after how many years!
Cab there walked back to the Market, I’m tired. Here’s one regret that I have. I let my lack of energy cheat me from going out to get dinner and trying more new foods. What was I thinking? I know there is never a bad meal in Portugal. 🐙🐟🐡

I could do a whole post on the tiles, also the doors were amazing and windows. The old trees too and their root systems.
