I don’t know this man. I didn’t attempt to communicate with him. If I had tried I would have used Spanish and he would use Portuguese. That is assuming he speaks Portuguese. When I motioned that I wanted to take his picture he smiled. I wished him a good day and he did the same. We crossed paths again after that and he nodded his head to acknowledge me. I think he thought it was cool that I found him interesting enough to take his picture. He wasn’t the only Black man or woman that I saw in Faro. He was just the most interesting. Th sidewalks in Portugal are paved with these stones. That’s a massive seagull’s nest atop the light post. #3 is somewhere between 526 years old and 1307 years old die made of bone! 2018 - 1492 = 526; 2018 - 711 = 1307. The Moors ruled Spain between 711 and 1492.
