We spent our last day in Spain- not really- and headed off to Portugal for a couple days. The photo of the reflecting pool is in the Alcazar in Sevilla. It was an immense place with so much grandeur that it would take too many photos to share. This one shows its beauty and mystic. We took the fast train out of Sevilla to Madrid-very suave-and caught a plan to Oporto. We are headed up to the Camino along the Portuguese Way. Oporto was another unique stop. It sits along the Duoro River and is famous for Port. Across the river you find the sherry making facilities. Since it was Sunday in this devout nation of Catholics, many sites and stores were closed. You would have to be over fifty to remember the day in the USA where stores were closed on Sundays. Well, we are off, but not by trolley.
