 |
| this sign talks about how the light house at the top of the cliff got fogged in more often then not and how so many ships hit the rocks looking for the light house that they built a new one in 1919. |

This was a long busy day and the batteries on my camera died so I didn't get pictures of the evening events but mostly it involved street performers and a walk to see the soccer stadium used in the world cup last year.
