Festa de Santa Antonio in São Martinho do Porto has officially begun with strictly speaking just the nine days, but I’m sure I heard some pre-partying last Thursday (-:

We were there having a nosey yesterday on Portugal Day, and taking a look at the stalls selling every conceivable thing to eat, drink or wear including new underwear. Is there something we don’t know yet about how Portuguese people have fun?

The stage is set and impressive. So many people are in town and ready. There is something to suit every taste and budget. I’m just wondering how everyone will keep it up for so long!

With ‘abraços’ from SMdP,

Carl
