Alcácer do Sal by night.
We went out to Arrábida Natural Park yesterday, and what a beautiful park it is. While walking along Praia do Creiro, one of the handful of beaches in the park, I saw a huge jellyfish and washed up at the shoreline. Its body was as large as a head. I’ve never seen one so large. I didn’t have a camera with me while on the walk, and so no picture, though I did capture some from the upper reaches of the park.
Captures from a walk through Alcácer do Sal this morning.
With the temperature in the low 30s, and cloudless skies, this character was overdressed yesterday.

Day 24 of the September Photoblogging Challenge: Belt, suggested by @allaboutgeorge
The only belt that I brought with me on this trip. Better than the last one though, when I forgot to bring one at all. Then there was a lot of hitching up of my trousers until I bought a belt.

This just fitted the bill for me for retrospect. A area from my past and which is still in my heart.
