Because there aren't enough bridges between Vila Nova de Gaia and Porto over the Douro river, here's another under construction. And the mayors of the two cities just announced another new pedestrian bridge up stream from this bridge.

Was going to title this "Half a bridge is better than none".

If you visit Portugal, pay attention to the flowers, especially in Spring. Here, hydrangeas.
