Day 113 - Torre de Hércules
23/4/11 - At 1900 years old this is the oldest working roman lighthouse in the world.

21/4/11 - The Sail into Lisbon is always worth a look, From the Atlantic and up the Tejo River then under the Ponte 25 de Abril (25th of April Bridge), Its always an early morning arrival in Lisbon and you catch the sun rising behind the bridge, quite magnificent.
