Porto, Portugal November 8-11, 2019

Boats carrying barrels of Port

Pretty street going down to the river Douro

City Hall

Waves crashing against the lighthouse at Foz, north end of Porto

Bridge built by Gustav Eiffel

Gustav Eiffel's bridge

Two churches but they can't touch so there is a very narrow building in between.

Lello Bookstore.  They charge 5 euros to get in
and it's lined up down the street.  The staircase inside
is supposed to be the one that inspired J.K. Rowling in her Harry Potter books

Me with Porto in the background

Narrow Porto houses

The narrowest building in the world apparently.
It's the one separating the two churches as they can't share walls
for some reason.




Gargoyle on the National Arts building

Store that sells only canned sardines, tuna, octopus, cod, etc.

Rob with newspaper seller statue.


Cathedral of Porto

Inside the cathedral
Looks like a mosque in parts

The fanciest McDonald's in the world

Gabrielle's quote about this:
"If the Nazis won and still
wanted a McDonalds".


Tram 22 which does a circular tour through the city.

Three laughing guys statue.
Maybe they're laughing cause the
one guy fell down the stands.
