A veritable stampede, and right in the middle of
Praça dos Restauradores!
A distant relative of Portugal defender
Ricardo Cowvalho.
Some Portuguese cowlture: A traditional green and black taxi.
A cowpyrighted cow outside of Cowmpo Pequeno.
Cowmpo Pequeno, home of Lisboetan bullfighting, and of the cowpyrighted cow.
Portuguese epic poet
Luís Vaz de Cowmões.
More Portugese cowlture: Portugese tiles with egg on top. Portuguese food is often topped with a fried egg. Well, the meat dishes at least.
I have been told that this cow looks just like Christopher Cowlumbus.
A cow of the world, located inside Cowlombo shopping center.
A view of
Cowlombo.
A statue of Armenian industrialist
Cowlouste Gulbenkian, located on the grounds of the
Fundação Cowlouste Gulbenkian. Not a cow in sight, but just too good a pun to pass up.

God!!! The cows were in the UK some years back and i been looking all over if anybody got good pictures of them cows!!!!
goodness gracious god! you are holy!
Cows!
*giggling away*
i love them cows.
does anybody know how to search for a good picture collection of these cows?
please??
god, this will start another one of my mad quests...
Treespotter, I have seen photos of the cows before, but this is my first time seeing them in person. I'm sure there must be an official site for them on the web...you can see the cows in Athens somewhere on Chloe's blog (frothonthedaydream.blogspot.com)
Helen, the fried egg one is one of my favorites! It is a great idea...especially because they're done by local artists, so there is a lot of local culture there.
I love the cow parade! My daughter got to paint one along with her class that was sold to a hospital in Houston. I never even got to see it, only a picture :(
I like your pictures. Are there any more? I feel in a very visual mood today
Those painted cows remind me of the painted moose in Toronto.
please let me know when you find out?
Thanks!
lol that was funny! I like the Cow of the world eheheh
I guess it must be really hot today over there. It's hot over here too but we escaped the heat-wave, I think - thank God :)
I went to the Gulbenkian museum when I was in Lisbon!
- And now there are cows over here too... Such a small world :)
Haha thats so cute! Wish I had money to travel. Bah.
lol! This is hilarious Kim!!!
This is the kind of stuff which makes me wish i could just pick a bag an travel all over the world!
LMAO!!!

I like puns, I like art, I like cows - needless to say I loved this post. I happened to see the CowParade twice the same year, first in Prague and then a couple of weeks later in Manchester. What's "moo" in Portuguese and in Danish?
Cowlumbus is my favourite! Are you having fun? yes you are.
Hey stranger!
Those pics are hysterical! Holy Cow!
I saw the cows in Chloe's blog a while back. They are amazing. Are they the same cows ?? Do they travel between cities and countries ??
I hope you are having a great week.
Take care, Meow
Neat! We do sort of the same thing here with 200 or so huge fibreglass bears. Each one is decorated by a different artist and they're in the middle of parks and sidewalks all over the place. :)
Ok...(ko hihi) nu har jeg læst din blog...er du så glad :-)?
Jeg savner dig rigtig meget - ring hjem når du har mulighed for det.
En ko der kan glo er go' kan du tro.
For non-danish speakers: this is pure nonsense.
Daphnewood, I have more cows...shall I e-mail them to you? It's a really cool exhibition...they're spread out all over the city, so you never know when you'll see them.
Tiffany, painted moose? Now, that sounds cool!
Treespotter, I haven't had time to look...but I'll just be googling 'cow parade'. There must be an official site.
Ms. Mood, heat wave...ugh! I'll be in Porto (I'm pretty sure) the weekend after next, and I hope it's cooler there!
Handsome Loser, welcome...and I believe the cows do travel. I'm more than ready to see them in other cities...it's very cool.
Mr. American, 'mooving' indeed! :-)
El G., Lisboa is beautiful, and I'm so glad to be back for long enough to feel I'm reclaiming it as my own, as it was when I lived here before. I'm a bit worried about going back to Copenhagen though...I'm expecting to have serious saudades.
Bryan, :-). Thanks!
Scholiast, cows in Oslo, too? I have to go there, then. I liked Oslo, for the 7 hours that I was there.
SocialPest, you'll find the means to travel. I'm sure of it.
Connie, I'd considered buying cows before, for myself and others...which makes seeing them in person even cooler.
Fitena, yes, travel. Come to Denmark, and I'll take you to lunch!
Fly, welcome back...and I hope you've recovered from your football problems. ;-) As a Portugal supporter with a connection to England (having lived there, and my closest football friends being English and England supporters), I felt a bit torn, I must say.
Marion, isn't 'moo' one of those universals? Actually, I want to say it's the same sound, more or less...but I wouldn't want to place bets on the spelling, especially in Danish.
Chloe, yes, I am having lots of fun...and if I had more readily available internet access, I could share that fun with you! And, I've been told that I have a package at home from Athens...I am looking forward to opening it when I get back! :-)
Brooke, hiya stranger...I'll be by to visit when I have the chance...but that might not be for a while.
Blue, thanks! :-)
Etchen, holy cow, yes, that's it! :-)
Day, a sheep version...what a wonderful opportunity for more baaad puns!
Meow, it's the same exhibition, but a the cows are done by local artists...after the exhibition, they are auctioned off, I believe, with proceeds going to charity. It's a cool idea.
Anonymous, I'd love to see the bears. Just think, bear puns. Beary interesting! ;-)
Maddy, I'd love to see these bears...are they there all the time, or just for a short period?
'Anonymous', en ko-mentar... ;-)! Jeg er faktisk rigtig glad. Og jeg osgå savner dig rigtig meget. Vi ses om lidt!
the cowpyright was the best one .. awesome to see so many cow designs .. how did this cow design start by the way ?
I don't know how it started (though I believe that there's an official website which probably explains it). But they are cool...now, I am quite keen to travel to more cow parade places.
lot of cow pow here....
Moo in next ;)
