Our friend FHC is now on his way back to the US after a few wild and happy days in Lisbon. Sergio’s historical birthday was an amazing and tasteful event, perfectly timed, organized and impeccably attended. Frederico C. was kind enough to spend most of the Week-end with us and to bring us to the key posh points of the city. We even managed to score an invitation to the new mansion of the Marques Alex de A. which is even better than his DC home. Lisbon is a vibrant up-and-coming European city with a traditional twist and the boys are gorgeous (particularly at Lux Fragil, the
We have a confidential clause in our contract with Fagat and Guillermo V. which does not allow us to comment on their behavior but we can say that Fagat was at his Fagatest and looked like a fish in water at the Bairro Alto. We, for once, almost acted our –young - age, were relaxed (or at least as relaxed as an FHC can be when he isn’t wearing pajamas and cannot connect to e-bay) and utterly drunk every night.
Ok kiddos, my plane is definitely boarding. I see you this evening.
Meeting so many fellow commenters on this blog was a true delight. Mucho gusto, Frederico C and MegaDCFag.
And on a side note, next time we hang out with your friends, we're learning French first. It was not lost on us that many times when we pretended to understand a group joke and chuckled along, in reality, we were laughing at ourselves...

I was very happy to welcome FHC and his friends in my "own natural environment" and to attend Sergio's kind invitation to a very tasteful birthday party.
It was a short but very pleasant weekend as it is not everyday that I get the visit of such a celebrity.
Moreover, I was finally able to put a face on some of this blog's most illustrious commenters.
I thought about disclosing FHC's behaviour here in Lisbon but since he wrote such nice comments about my hometown, I'll leave it up to him...
As for you, FHC, now that you've seen that "Lisbon is a vibrant up-and-coming European city", make sure to come back again as I'm still going to be trapped here for a while...
