Our hostel, named the "KITSCH" hostel, was adorable and lived up to its name. The walls were papered with magazine cut outs and giant cat portraits and the ceilings were lined in silver and butterflies hung from the beams.
We found a wonderful cupcake/tearoom called Tease in the Bario Alto neighborhood. The cupcake menu depended on what was baked that morning and each cupcake was served on an old fashion china pattern plate. There were big comfy velvet armchairs to sit in and we had a lovely iced coffee and lime juice drink to go with our dessert. Yum.
We went hunting Saturday morning for the famous Lisboa Thieves and Fleas Market. We found it along the shore line with booth after booth of people selling everything from cell phones and car parts to antique furniture and children's toys. Anything and everything could be haggled and bought and then off to drink some freshly squeezed lemonade after your efforts.
