Portomarin

The riding team from L to R Nikki, Sue, Rafa, Monolo, Marcelino and me having an evening meal in O'Cereibo.

A melee of horses over looking O'Cereibo.

Climbing up a steep hill.

Some of the surrounding countryside.

A view of Portamain as we enter the twon.

The new bridge which in winter is standing in  a reservoir but the reservoir is empty right now.

The fortified Romanesque church. It was moved from its original position when the da down stream of the town was built. The town was subject to a massive flood in the 1960s and the whole town was moved to higher ground.

The shopping arcade.

The main plaza.

Another view of the church.

Entrance to another arcade.

The new bridge and the mediaeval bridge beside it.

A picture of the phenomomen  of cloud in the valley and clear skies further up the hill so common in this area.

The sunrise over Portamarin.

More cloud in the valley looking over the remains of the old Roman town standing out of the river.

And I found a Land Rover in Portomarin!

Marcelino leading the string of horses whilst I took a dic=version to see the top of the Celtic fort at Castromaior.

The string leaving me behind.

Me on top of another mountain.

And the view from the saddle.

The food at our next stop at Palais del Rei was superb, the Ensalade Mixte,

El Pescado (monkfisk)

Pork and chips.

And guess what I found in Palais del Rei?
