What I would really love to show you is how beautiful the magnolia trees look around Porto these days. But since I don’t have DSLR photos of them yet, here’s an Instagram shot from my phone and some photos from my in-laws’ backyard.
I know, it’s just not the same. But it was 22C yesterday and I needed to be outside with my camera for a while. Roll on, Portuguese winter!
For more of the daily quick pics, which are mostly of street art, food, my dog, and other distractions, see my Instagram feed.
