Vila Praia de Âncora (PT) | 2024 | CP 2601

            During my second day in Vila Praia de Âncora I found myself between the edge of town and the ocean at the end of the day. Well, I say end but my day wasn't over for another 6 hours. However it was the beginning of the last hour of daylight. One more train to Valença would be passing and we were getting ready for it right on time. While my travel companion wanted to get a close-up, I wanted to get a little bit more of the scenery on photo. So with the limited room as the evergrowing shadows came closer, it was hard to find the right spot. Luckily I could get my camera up higher as my friend stood a bit before me. I just needed to stand back more in order to get the most of the scenery on frame. Luckily we both managed and even better, this final train of the day (or so I thought it would be at that point) was right on time.

The train here passes along the edge of town. The flats on the left are probaby among the most expensive properties in town, even though they might be a lot smaller, since they look out onto the Atlantic Ocean. On the right some locals grow their vegetables. It was all silent and calm, with only the sound of the sea to hear, when they train to Valença approached and thundered along the tracks.
