East of the sun(and west of the moon)…

This is the second donkey 🫏 iv come across on this trip if u have been following the blog?….the first one had a really long face…😜

Today, following a few days respite, I’m continuing the journey slowly south, towards my eventual departure from Porto. A cloudy start again but still keeping the sea on my right. As I approach ‘Viano do Costelo’ the coast gets rocky and the cobblestones get more unbearable on my non-existent suspension. I walk…

As I approached, I couldn’t resist riding up the long, protruding length sticking out from Viana do Costello out to sea…🤐

Iv got to get my little hairy sticks over this erection tomorrow…the Ponte Eiffel, yes, also the maker of the famous landmark in Paris…so quite a trophy!

The ‘Bastoners’ were in town when I arrived and practicing in every narrow street and square.

 

A colourful lot of Catalonian stick dancers with little tinkling bells, like Portuguese morris dancers and equally as boring looking!

A bit of jazz today with a chilled Diana Krall track, with quite a clever link (IMO)…as DK is married to Elvis (Viana do)Costello..it’s not just thrown together!!…like the beer, it’s crafted!
