Wonderful pictures! The picture of the roast suckling pig fired up my salivary glands, as you would expect. I thought cruel and unusual punishment was unconstitutional -- well, maybe not in Portugal.
ReplyDeleteWow! I had to look up the Chapel of Bones to understand what that was about. I read the poem that is perhaps inscribed there (I read the translated version). Wow. I am further along my journey now... ; )
ReplyDeleteWas it a somber place? So beautiful your pictures are. Will people eat those octopus?
Love to you!
