Algarve, Portugal

A dull day on the coast of the Algarve. Supposedly the water has lovely aquamarine colours in the sunlight but, alas, I did not witness it. 

On the way to southern Portugal's Algarve region by local bus, I stopped into a small town, Evora, to view the Chapel of Bones, which as the name implies, is a small chapel where the interior is decorated with human skulls and bones. It's suppose to be a reflection on the transitory nature of life. A bit creepy. No doubt unique.

Could this be Uncle Jim?

Worst. Statue. Ever!
El Rei Dom Sebastião Statue. Lagos, Portugal

Okay, I'm going to insult someone I'm sure but this is the all time worse monument. I thought is was a joke until told it truly commemorates a king from the 16th century. Really? I mean what are they thinking?  Hate to see what they would do if they did not like someone.
