experimenting with a picture

I'm trying to download a picture to go with this blog. This is my first attempt to include a picture with my blog.  It's showing up on my screen and I would appreciate it if anyone reading this will let me know if they can see the picture.  A side note here: I'm happy to report that every plane I flew in on this trip had winglets. We flew into Lisbon to begin our tour and the first impression from the air was white buildings and red tile roofs - very pretty. Once on the ground the scenes got much more colorful. The first day we toured the Moorish Alfama Quarter, Jeronimo's Monastery and more. Because I was usually busy walking and taking pictures I didn't always make as many notes as I should have. This should come as no surprise since people who know me well realize that I can barely walk and chew gum at the same time. Anyway, I'm pretty sure this picture is from the church at St. Jeronomo's. Throughout the whole trip I was intrigued with the Moorish influence on the architecture and I think this is a beautiful example.  After the first full day of sight seeing we had a lovely dinner (the first of many which led to me gaining five pounds on this trip) and were entertained by singers and guitarists playing Fado - a traditional Portuguese art form.  I didn't understand a word of course but it was very beautiful and moving, rather like listening to an opera in Italian. More about Portugal tomorrow.
