Vigo visit


A visit to Vigo proved interesting, I hadn't realised before the potential for skateboarding that the wide open plazas and pedestrian areas presented. Megan had told Alex where the local skaters congregated near the Yacht club and we wandered up through the old town and back towards the particular square Megan had mentioned.


The weather continued bright and sunny with odd showery intervals.


The young dinosaur continues to grow, and possibly because of the recent match with Manchester united in the UEFA cup the ugly merman statue was decorated with a Celta de Vigo shirt. the local team are known as " Os Celestes" or the Sky Blues.


Alex was missing his guitar so that initiated a search for a cheap guitar. Normally Lynne likes shopping but she didn't seem overly interested in musical instruments, (neither Lynne or I can play a note on anything)


 However a guitar was found and Alex bought it to donate to the boat so that I could learn.


Alex met up with the locals as planned and enjoyed skating the local spots.


Luckily a small collision with a local was treated very politely!
