Title: Portugal
Post by: Yorkie on September 18, 2010, 05:29:30 pm

I am just back from one of my usual sojourns to The Algarve.   Brilliant weather for the whole fortnight with temperatures up in the 90's.

A hazy early sunrise from the hotel room.  Is it me bleary eyed or the camera?

What's the structure bottom right foreground?

I thought it was part of a prison complex, complete with watchtower when I first glanced at it.  :o

I wouldn't know what a Prison watchtower looked like  L0L - however it is upper part of a block of apartments (lift machinery room?)    :speechless:

The lorry in the photo looks like an old 1960's Bedford.
