Same here!
If there are any new shoes purchased, I want to see pics of those too!

Pianists are arriving to Lisbon everyday.
We are just waiting for PaperClip to have all the group together.



Everybody is having a great time and I'm sure lots of pictures will posted soon.
Tomorrow is the EPP Day!

Here are a couple. This first picture is a nice view of DT Lisbon and a 2 minute walk from my room. The second is a Palace at the top of a mountain in Sintra (resort village on the coast.) I just got back a few moments ago and will be meeting up with the rest of the group for another nice dinner in 2 hours.

Oh, nice shoes!

And Lisbon is beautiful. Love the "cake" feel of the castle. Looks like a great vacation.

Nice pictures, and great "Made in Portugal" shoes!

And dinner pictures?

Those are sweet shoes!

Nice pictures. Some people are wearing jackets. How's the weather there? Cannot wait for more posts from you guys.

Beautiful pictures, looking forward to more!

Have fun everyone!

Nice meeting point at the local metro station where I met the rest of the group. The whether is 29 degrees celcius or 84 fahrenheit, feeling nice due low humidity.


The entrance of the restaurant is quite tricky to find.


View from the entrance into the restaurant.


The bar.


Gathering and lunch time.


A lot of presents.


Everybody got his own drawing from Carlos.


And a Pianoworld cup.



Mr Pianoworld, Frank, through skype, saying hello and he was the first guest playing a piece.


Then Carlos sat down at the piano and played.

More later.

Ok, not everybody loves soccer. But context is everything. After the piano party I went home for a rest.

Then at 9.00 pm, the quarter final world soccer championship Holland against Costa Rica. Such a nerve wracking game. Holland hit the post so many times I lost count. But the ball didn't went in.

11.40 pm, penalties.... nerves went sky rocket

11.50 pm, YEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHH, Holland win

12.00 pm bedtime..... lmao, I wonder if I sleep at all this night

But such a wonderful day, hah
