Vigo is a beautiful city located in the northwestern part of Spain, in the province of Pontevedra. As you have a half-day to spend in Vigo, here are some recommendations to help you make the most of your visit:

  1. Take a stroll around the Old Town: The Old Town of Vigo is full of narrow streets, historic buildings, and cozy cafes. It's a great place to explore on foot and get a sense of the local culture. You can visit the Santa Maria Cathedral, which is located in the heart of the Old Town.

  2. Visit the Castro Fortress: The Castro Fortress is a historical fortress that offers panoramic views of the city and the sea. You can take a guided tour of the fortress, and learn about its history and significance.

  3. Take a walk along the Ría de Vigo: The Ría de Vigo is a beautiful estuary that flows into the Atlantic Ocean. You can take a walk along the promenade, and enjoy the views of the water and the city skyline.

  4. Visit the Mercado de la Piedra: The Mercado de la Piedra is a local market where you can find fresh seafood, fruits, and vegetables. It's a great place to try some of the local delicacies and immerse yourself in the local culture.

  5. Enjoy the beaches: Vigo has some beautiful beaches, such as Samil Beach and O Vao Beach. If you have time, you can relax on the beach and enjoy the sun and the sea.

As you have a limited time in Vigo, it is recommended to prioritize the places and activities that interest you the most. Also, keep in mind the time it takes to get back to your cruise ship, so you don't miss your departure time.

Black Friday in November.

 Not much a Black Friday shopper. Visited Winnie and Wilson yesterday to install the new hand-held shower head and Grab Bars for Winner's washer room (under the order from Daniel...) Job accompanied.  Bought a cheap Philip Shaver from Canadian Tire 50% off (washable too). This could be the last shaver I purchase in my life. I remember I had a Philip Shaver when start my study in the UK. After all, I am a Philip Shaver person. Wesley and Emily are on vacation in the desert Morocco Africa. Nice photos they have sent us. Should be back coming Sunday and going back to London. Wesley is a Doctor now. Presently, he could practice family medicine under supervision from another doctor. Hopefully, he could get the fully license soon. Jon have been let go by the previous company about a month ago. Not a good time to look for a new job. Trying very hard and watch a lot of TV too.
