Porto

12.09.09 - Porto, Portugal - Maria and I met Eunice and her friends in Porto for our long weekend at the beginning of December (something about an immaculate conception, I don't know). We spent four days tooling around town and learning about port wine.

Also we went to Foz, just outside of the city with the beach. The waves were pretty impressive and it looked like it would be a great spot in July.

Bridge built by Augustus Effiel, the same guy who built that tower in Paris.
Ahhh, John and Mei and Claudia doing photos.
We got super soaked (hehe) on Saturday walking around Gaia looking for port wine bodegas and then we got on the train. My lens fogged up but it made for a cool shot of Fiona who was sitting across from me.

Doesn't this kind of look like a U2 album cover? Someone call Bono.
Crossing the Effiel Bridge. Doesn't have the same ring.

Inside the arts and crafts bubble/Christmas market in a praça on Rua da Sá da Bandiera.
Coffee at the Café Majestic.
The grounds around the Palacio do Cristal. The palacio was not grand, but I do like the picture and the peacock.
