    As a keen angler and love fish, I took this photo near the river mouth. These fish are pan size (40cm) and are fished by the locals. I walked along the river for about 4km and there was no end to these fish. BTW, the walkway is built above and against the river bank with steps down to the water...

    One thing we have noticed is that there are hardly any fat people here. Perhaps it is the diet? Most people eat fish and veggies. The most popular is the salted Cod. This is a fish dried out with salt and is about a meter long. You can buy it and just chuck it in your pantry and leave it for...

    We cannot adjust to the foods here. Seems that they do not sell much spices but use fresh herbs instead. All we can find is curry, salt and pepper. I am a tea drinker and all the tea here are flavored with fruits. No plain tea. All the coffees are strong and mostly perculted stuff served in...

    Posting in sections for those that are interested. I hate long posts. Still looking for long term rent after all the hotels. There are many here but but no replies to my emails.

    Finally arrived. Got to Dubai at midnight and tried to sleep in a chair till 06.00 for our next flight with no success. Reached Lisbon 8 hours later still no sleep. Booked into the hotel and had a restless night due to stress about where and what platform our train to Porto would be. This was...

    Tested pasting on 2 other forums and it works normally. Seems that this forum does not do copy and paste with android.

    Can't seem to paste on this forum. I can copy but when I paste, it says to use CTRL+V and my tablet does not have a CTRL key. Got my emigration experience typed out on my notepad and can't seem to paste it here.

    Strange that both died. Makes me think that it could be some short causing this. Try a new coil.
