Luis I bridge
Had lunch on water on day 1, well on day 2 as well! Wednesday night we went to ritzy restaurant Vinum on the hill overlooking Porto. Sumptuous food and naturally had some port.
Small port
Found a Fado restaurant Thursday night and it was an exhilarating experience. The first singer Maria was good, then we were treated to a young guy whose voice was sublime. Could make you cry with his plaintive notes.
Could not understand but did not need to.
Fado night
In any case we spent yesterday on personal wine tour up Douro valley with just us 4, as the boys had gone on to Munich.
Spectacular vineyards and brilliant wines. Great day was had and our guide was so good.

A little weary by the time we got home so spent night in. Saturday here so will see how it pans out.
