Beautiful car and beautiful city !
Bridge was designed by Gustave Eiffel, I believe.
We walked the top level of the bridge one evening after a visit to the Port wineries on the south side. We were high !!!
Thanks for the great memory.

That's not the Eiffel bridge but was designed by someone who worked for Eiffel and worked on the Eiffel Bridge a few year earlier which is just upstream

The Eiffel bridge has no lower deck

What a great city, and to have a great looking SL cruise the city. It’s uncanny where Pagodas show up. I did not see one when I was in Porto, but did see a Ferrari. The Europeans know how to live. Wine, cheese, and a Sunday drive. That’s what weekends are all about.
