“Let us conceive, consider and create together the new building of the future that will bring all into one single integrated creation; architecture, painting and sculpture rising to heaven out of the hands of a million craftsmen, the crystal symbol of the new faith of the future.”
I’m pretty sure that Walter Gropius didn’t have this in mind when he said these rather pompous words.
I’m guessing that somewhere between these words and the jumble showing in this photograph [taken just up the road in Lagoa] there might be something worth existing in and around.

i love what they’ve done with the front garden! maybe that’s what i’m missing – clay jars bigger than a truck!
There are some clay jars here that are even bigger. I don’t know how they lift them as Portugeezers tend to be on the small side ………
It looks like a parcourse for drunken leprechauns.
woh that is way deep for a man on holiday! … I like the randomness and jumble of that front garden… every home should have a ‘feature’ or 3/4/5….
I’m just fascinated by that huge piece of pottery…
Are they the ‘empties’ from the Birthday celebrations ?
I think you should hurry home by the way, the BBC are reporting severe erosion of the cliffs in the East Sussex area……

Note to self – remember to get some piccies of the really huge pots they have out here ……. oh, and Google how to live on an island …….
wow – jamie oliver would have a field day – filling one of those clay pots with food and burying it in burning embers to cook it – he could then feed the five thousand – well it would take that many to dig the hole!!!
