Sun 11 May-Evora

Sun 11 May- a chilly day, windy and cloudy. After breakfast, we went to the Public Gardin, where we enjoyed the ruins and the peacocks & hens more than the plants. The mercado was open, and there was a flea market featuring all kinds of goods: balances, watches, coins, stamps, pottery, glasses, an ancient Singer sewing maching, foot-powered, and old Victrola record player and 78 rpm records, lots more. We walked through the streets enjoying the architecture and noticing the three main colors: red roof tiles, white walls, and ochre molding. We had supper at 'Restaurante 1/4para as 9': 1/2 bottle white wine (E5), bread (E2), three entrees at E3 each-herring roe, grilled peppers, and diced liver, and the main course a big dish of clams (E17)
