Not totally sure what to expect, I headed off to Porto, Weather isn't the best, rain, sun, more rain...being Vegie here, is really hard, everything has some kind of meat in it, dosen't help when you can't speak to local language, Anyway, I'm not paranoid about being Vegie, I have hit my main goal of loosing weight, I just enjoy being vegie, plus it makes the decision making process easy, if you don't know me by now, I can never make up my mind...
Main railway station, in S. Bento Porto, there were more, but they were being cleaned or something (as you can see on the edges)
Am guessing it's the retaking of portugal from the moor's
View from on top of the bridge
Old city, alot of buildings are in decay, abandoned.
Metro! why can't Auckland have something like this, it's amazing.... isn't as confusing as Lisbon, am getting the hang of it..
Interesting bits of street art
Loved the bling bling...
More old buildings, statues, they are everywhere.... I do find it hard to work out if its ok to go inside or not, so far I've only been into churches, and prisons, didn't feel right taking photos in a church.
Lasty, that night, we went to a friend of Rui's place to watch the football, FC Porto vs Lisbon, Porto needed to win by 2 goals or something, it was the semi final, I have never seen anyone soo animated when there team scored, Porto won 3-1, after the match, you could hear people, yelling for joy outside, car horns etc..
They showed on TV Porto fans being escorted back to there buses by Riot police, I mean, WTF, I hope NZ never gets like this...
