Porto

Shopping in Porto

The photo shows the usual Sunday markets by the river at Porto. Very much the tourist trap for trinkets and silly souvenirs.

We spent a great day doing the tourist thing around Porto, including an hours boat ride up and down the river, visits to monasteries and the old town.

We have decided to forego the walk to Santiago, which is a shame. But my knees are just not up to a second long walk so soon after the recent walk.

We are planning to still head to Santiago (by train or bus) stay a few days and then cruise around the north coast of Spain for a while, checking out the beach resorts and the little fishing villages.
