Nestled down a little back-alley we find the restaurant, Zé Manel dos Ossos. We squeeze ourselves into the tiny room made to feel slightly smaller by 3 walls being festooned with handwritten eulogies to the chef, clocks and for some reason the head of a bespectacled boar. The other wall is taken over by the kitchen / bar and this in turn is ...
Porto, Northern Portugal, Portugal warm... started by the Romans) and they vineyards are not allowed (by regulation) to irrigate the vines. On the cruise we got to meet some of the other passengers - some were Portugese by birth but living in South Africa, USA or Brasil. Chris got into a long conversation (in broken Portugese and English) with a local lady who had never done the river trip.

... and play cricket - they seem to revel in fast bowling and big slogs (maybe they can get the IPL here?). The cricket guys take over from the skateboarders each afternoon. Just over the road from the square is the internet cafe we're using - €0.50/hour which is very reasonable.
Today we got lost trying to find a particular tram that goes to the coast (a suburb called Foz) and thus had a long but enjoyable walk ...
... for a hostel. It looked more like an Ikea show room with free printing, quality linen, and a little bit too nice for a hostel. Good point to wind down I guess and as a result the only exciting thing I did was visit the Port Cellars which it is obviously famous for.
Unfortunately, I was one night too late for St John The Baptist festival ...
... sajandit kahanes elanike arv 2/3 võrra; täna elab seal ca 56 500 inimest. 1808. a raius Barra kanal tagasi tee ookeanini ning Aveiro hakkas taas jalgu alla võtma. Peatusime seal vaid selleks, et jalgu sirutada ja päikest nautida; pildistasime žigulis istuvad meest, kes oli ilmselt oma autoga ühevanune; tegime kesklinnale tiiru peale ja peale paari jäätist jätkasime sõitu.

Santa Maria da Feira, Portugal pintas... kala oli üsna kuivanud, veel kuivem oli seal peal olnud laimiviil, millest ei tulnud tilkagi. Kõhu sai küll täis, aga sellised väiksed asjad rikkusid meeleolu. Pärast me muidugi lihtsalt naersime selle üle, sest ülejäänud restoranikogemused olid hoopis teistsugused :) Õhtul klõpsasime paar pilti, vaatasime kuidas jalgpallifännid laulsid ja lõugasid (ilmselt tulid mingilt kohalikult matšilt) ja sõitsimegi metrooga tagasi hotelli, et välja puhata järgmise päeva pikaks sõiduks.
Porto, Northern Portugal, Portugal pille... This will be our last travel pod while we are here. Tomorrow we leave for London and we are scheduled to be home by Sunday morning. We will update events in London and add pictures as soon as we return. UPDATE----I need to say how wrong we were about Porto. The guide book that we had recommended much to do on the north side of the River. The only thing it suggested about the south side were the port cellars. We decided to go and taste some port ...
