In case some of the information isn’t just hanging out there at the top of your mind – this is the Azores and part of Portugal. And, it is Sunday so most everything isn’t open. A few stores along with the cafes and the souvenir shops but that is it. No DMC for me. Ah, well I have plenty of other projects.
On to more intersting things. As I mentined, this is Portugal – so there are wonderful tiles and street signs on the walls
There are mosaic patterns as part of the sidewalks and pavered roads –
there is iron work on balconies
I have discussed in the past the “ships of the wall” in Maderia where all the major ships coming through have painted their emblem/logo/information on the sea wall where they dock. Then I looked up the post (2012) and realized it is one of those where the photos didn’t transfer when I moved this blog from the Germany server to one in the US. Anyway -those were the big ships, cruise, military etc. Here? These are the small ships, the family ships, the sailing vessels. There are a few painted from 2014-2017, a few more in 2018-2019, but most are from this year.
So now I am back on the ship with my phone on for just today (Thank you Vodaphone) and downloading audibooks, reading email and of course answering same.
