Check Out to Check In Vila do Conde Portugal
It was now time for me to leave one place in Vila Do Conde and go to another, as I left Oporto Guest Vila Do Conde River and Sea and my terraced view of pond and river, it was time for me, to depart, but not arrive at my next destination. To make ease of this time I drove along the shore and farmlands from, my point of departure to Fao and then back to my point of arrival.
The highlight of a relaxed day, was standing upon the beach as the suns ray’s shone. A man parked his car near mine and walked directly towards. Not a good sign I had thought. There was construction nearby, had parked wrong, was the beach closed.
Apparently, not he reached into his pocket pulled out his camera phone and began showing it to me, and saying something about the Sun. I think he was sharing with me his reflections on the Suns affects on taking pictures of the sea at the time. None the less, he and I took pictures, and sharing our screen views, as we continued to take pictures in the directions the Sun would permit. Once done he went to his car to who his wife, who was happy and I returned to my car, where I was happy too, to have had an encounter of unknown purpose but left a nice feeling inside.
As the day progressed, I watched as ladies tended to their produce, and walked with more for delivery. I in the ease of my rental, their’s with little ease on wagon wheels, with no horsepower in front, all they needed, it appears is women power.
As I settle into my new location, the birds above do their evening commute from roost to nest.
Herewith, are my photos of land and sea and the people in-between.
