May 13 Porto

The shuttle bus took us into town, a trip of about 30 minutes from the port 6 miles outside the city. We arrived along the left bank of the Douro River. We walked about, mostly admiring the old buildings.

Ponte daArrabida in the distance, very near the mouth

We crossed over to the right bank

Prince Henry the Navigator was born here, and now stands on a tall plinth pointing to the sea.
