SANTA CRUZ

(Photos by Sailor Girl taken at 9 a.m. this morning, during a long walk on an even longer beach 50 kms away from Lisbon)

MORE SPECTACULAR PHOTOS COMING SOON

I WILL SOON POST MORE PHOTOS I'VE JUST TAKEN THIS AFTERNOON AT CASCAIS TO THE KING AND QUEEN OF NORWAY AND TO THEIR ROYAL YACHT!!! And NO, the Portuguese and Norwegian Secret Services did neither arrest me, nor taken my camera away... I was lucky, though, as they would have if only they could. It was a sad episode at my home town and birthplace. I will soon tell you more about it, but the really important fact is the beautiful arrival of Their Majesties the King and the Queen of Norway to Cascais...

«God gave the sea the danger and the abyss,

But it was in it that He mirrored the sky.»

«Deus ao mar o perigo e o abismo deu,

Mas nele é que espelhou o céu».

Fernando Pessoa, "Mar Português", Verses 11-12
