Fonte Luminosa (Luminous Fountain) is located by Alameda Dom Afonso Henriques, in Lisboa.
The park/gardens Esténio mentioned near Praça de Espanha is at Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian (Gulbenkian Foundation) – Av. de Berna, 45A, 1067-001 Lisboa.
And regarding Parque Eduardo VII, it's really the 7th.
Regarding snow, it snowed a bit in Serra da Estrela (highest mountains in continental Portugal) last Thursday or Friday (November 17th or 18th), but the rain cleaned it in no time. It's common to snow in Portugal, but usually only in the higher altitudes.
When you go to Sintra, you can also consider visiting the Palace in Queluz (halfway between Sintra and Lisbon) and its gardens.
Colour TV in Portugal started in 1975, but it only became standard in 1980.
Hmmmmm… is Potugal's Portuguese considered the proper language and Brazil and Angola is more of the "slang" of the language? I ask because the Spanish and Portuguese of BraIl is a mixture and the Angolan language and Portuguese is mixed so the dialects are different??? I ask because I know there are different Spanish speaking countries with different dialects but the language is not proper Spanish.
Regarding guns in Angola, remember that there was a civil war there until 2002, so guns shouldn't be that difficult to find.
The Gulbenkien park and museum is a great recommendation to go visit. Also, when he mentions 10 degrees he is talking about Celsius which is about 50 degrees in Fahrenheit. The low in Los Angeles last night was 51 degrees which is about the same as the Lisbon weather in the winter.
Catching the replay. This is going to be great 👍.
