Lisbon’s linear tomato and corn fields are replaced by random planting of olive trees. This haphazard planting brings charm to the orchards. Olive leaves turn and twist silently in the breeze. I strain to listen to the rustling of leaves but it’s absolutely silent.

Olive Trees.
The Olive tree dwarfs my backpack. It reminds me of an old person with a toupee.
Today’s blossoms.
