2022
This time we have joined the fantastic initiative from HelloSamsonR and participating in the Vol2 edition of the World Wide Map Edit Walk.
I live in Ayamonte, a small town in the South of Spain on the Border with Portugal. There is a natural border, the Guadiana River. There are two different ways of crossing it: by car, driving over the International Bridge or by ferry. The last one was the option we choose.
I was the only one attendee with two of my three kids, Luisita prefered to be working with her daddy :)))
We bought the tickets and took the ferry. It takes 15 mins to travel from Ayamonte (Spain) to Vila Real do Santo Antonio (Portugal).
Once you take off the ferry you can see the lovely marina Vila Real have, and I really like this restaurant with fantastic views.
I started to add new places to Google Maps. Traditionally, this side of the River sells towels, sheets ... household clothes.
My Mini Local Guides had an immense patience and I invited them to a snack and this is the place and what they choose :)))
We noticed that the Ferry can be used by people with reduced mobility.
We didn't see anything special about recycling like wastebaskets with different compartments… extrange because Portugal usually is ahead Spain on this topic...
And… we returned back to Ayamonte. There are two differents boats crossing the river Guadiana, one Portugesse and other Spanish. I prefer the Spanish one because there is a terrace upstairs and you feel more inmerse and surrounded by water because we are in the mouth to the Atlantic Ocean.
On the right side of the photo is Ayamonte (Spain), on the left side is Vila Real do Santo Antonio (Portugal).
We had a really good time.
Many many thanks for taking your time and reading this Recap :)))
Good Afternoon from the South of Spain,
Alejandra.
