Today's photo-of-the-day is from Porto, Portugal. According to Wikipedia, "On the Douro River estuary in northern Portugal, Porto is one of the oldest European centers, and its core was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996, as the Historic Centre of Porto, Luiz I Bridge and Monastery of Serra do Pilar...The western part of its urban area extends to the coastline of the Atlantic Ocean. Settlement dates back to the 2nd century BC, when it was an outpost of the Roman Republic."
The photo shows the moonrise over the Luís I Bridge over the Douro River in Porto. The photo was taken on our last night in Portugal. On our next trip, we'll be above the Arctic Circle in Norway.
"Luís I Bridge glows.
Moonlight spills across Douro.
Farewell, Portugal."
