Thanks Jim. Sadly we didn’t get to stay for long in Porto or see the aqueduct. So many wonderful things to see and do. x

Thanks Chris. Most of the time, although long rough sailing trips are still not my idea of fun xx

I can see from the Porto picture that you are on the Port warehouse side of the Duoro so obviously food forgotten and port firmly in hand. If you want a trip slightly north of Porto (its on the ‘tube way’ stop at Vila do Conde) which I think is also near the airport there is an incredible aqueduct from a monastery that runs over a mile – we went to see a Portuguese team called Rio Ave there and were surprised about the aqueduct which dominates the landscape.Glad its all going well and weather improving. x

Looks like you are having fun.

Fantastic

Thanks Ken. I’m missing St Andrews, really! x

I’m not sure if the tales of mutiny….. ‘marital discord as wife feels slightly sea-sick on boat’…. would hold your attention much either. I hope that I will be making up all the tales of danger. Will try harder x

Love your blog. It brightens up St Andrews no end.

Seems to be a feature of long distance travel that food looms large in the daily routine. At least you don’t have to find accommodation every night. Can you whip up some more tales of danger and mutiny on the high seas ? Make them up of you like. “Fish bone almost causes mild discomfort” isn’t holding my attention…..

Break a log, safe sailing, or whatever they say in the nautical world
