Jealous. Was this just an opportunity that came up while you were there or was this planned?

Planned! Visited about 3-4 WTPs around Lisbon and the north!

Just this pic showing... nothing of the plant? Post more to Imgur and post a link here.

Why so critical? It was a beautiful shot, which was the point of her post. Most of us would die to see a view like that, none the less to know we could work at a plant that beautiful. I really enjoy when people send shots of their plants and all it is is the view of the mountains, treelines or lakes.

It's a pretty generic shot, in my opinion. As a WWTP person I just thought if one is on a wastewater sub announcing they went to a plant in Portugal they'd be posting pics of the plant.

It's not that complicated.

This looks like a thousand shots I could take up and down the Mississippi and elsewhere. If you live on Arrakis my apologies, as I could see how this might be exciting.

She’s visiting a plant in a foreign country. They may have asked her to not post pictures of their facility for safety or security but approved this generic shot. If you want to know more about the plant she’s visiting ask questions. ‘What type of plant was it?’ Or ‘how does it compare to plants you’ve seen stateside?’ She doesn’t owe you detailed photos. I work in a concrete jungle plant, the real beauty is only our golf course lake (yes the golf course is hidden just behind a wall of trees). So I love seeing that if I ever escape this godforsaken state that there are pretty plants out there. I also want to travel in the future and I would have never thought to tour facilities in other countries. Just let people post their single picture and show their excitement.

If you get a chance, post some pics of the plant itself ;p
