28/4/11 - Lots of these Dandelion Clocks were growing in my garden, I got a few snaps of them and then the breeze whisked them all away to fairy land. I talk rubbish sometimes.

Day 116 - Pepper Pot
26/4/11 - I saw this in La Corunna and thought it looked just like a pepper pot, I think its a guard house or something.

Day 113 - Torre de Hércules
23/4/11 - At 1900 years old this is the oldest working roman lighthouse in the world.
Hercules slew the giant tyrant Geryon after three days and three nights of continuous battle, then buried the head of Geryon with his weapons and ordered that a city and be built on the site.
Day 112 - Thistle Do
22/4/11 - Another Surprise location while on my cruise was La Coruna in Northern Spain, I really liked it there, I lot of history and its quite a pretty place. Saw this on a walk along the coast to the lighthouse.
Day 111 - Lisbon Morning
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.
