Wonderful old architecture. I'm trying to figure out that structure in the second photo. I have never seen anything quite like it.

Sailing ships always call to something in me; I don't know why. But I love the way they look.

Hi Sara, the second photo and the forth are of the Santa Justa Elevator in Lisbon and the Large statue of Christ on the top of the hill in the blog before was a present from the people of Brazil...
Yes sailing ships always call to me too, I see them and grab for my camera's.
