Up with the lark the following day to be at the quayside for our cruise up the River Douro.
 |
| Just an excuse for another Pont Luis 1 photo, but this one at daybreak! |
 |
| Before long our boat arrived and we were soon tucking into breakfast on board |
 |
| Still in Porto evidence of important buildings left to ruin |
 |
| The morning mist lent an eerie quality to the view |
 |
| Bridges, bridges, bridges |
 |
| Just entering the locks at Crestuma-Lever Dam... |
 |
| ...with its intriguing system of keeping vessels steady as the water rose. |
 |
| Ready to exit... |
 |
| ...and the view from above the dam. |
 |
| Along the way: many villages were half submerged by the rising water levels |
 |
| The Portuguese flag to remind us where we were |
