BELOW: Through Ponte Luiz. Cable cars on other side of river. The round building was signposted as Patrimonio a Norte translating to Northern Heritage. Fish Fixe restaurant where I had the best ever octopus lunch.
> Port tasting. Porto with it’s pyjamas on including drummers pounding the streets with an ever increasing number of dancers following = absolutely delightful to be part of. Calem Port tasting, biggest barrels I’ve ever seen with the angels getting more than their fair share. I have a 10 year vintage requiring volunteers to help me drink within three days of opening but best in one sitting - kept some restraint, only bought a half sized bottle.
