After a week of rain and clouds, finally a decent sunset in Porto. ❤️
Last Year I visited the Portugees town of Vizela for a #Cittaslow conference. At one evening we went to visit Porto. We drove along the coast were a shot the lighthouse at Jardim do Passeio Alegre. It was windy this day as you can see at the waves. 
Porto btw is a very beautiful city at the ocean. I will be back one day.
