Old and new
Downtown Oeiras used to be surrounded by old charming farms; as time goes by new buildings are taking their place and little by little those farms are gone forever.
This wall belongs to a partially abandoned farm, struggling against concret invasion, although it is almost swallen by the uncharacteristic modern buildings shown in the background.

Graffiti
Climate changes drive everybody crazy! It's the peak of summer and temperature has dropped as the sky gets heavilly clouded!... So, instead of going to the beach I've chosen another direction for my daily walk and came across this guy! Definatelly not a new graffiti, but I've never noticed it before...

Blooming agaves
As many other non-native plants, agaves were brought from the Americas by portuguese navigators, five centuries ago (Discoveries Age).
They adapted quite well and, at least three species are now spread everywhere from central to southern Portugal, the hottest half of the country. On the facing south 'Costa do Sol' (Sunny Coast) where I live, they look really charming on top of the cliffs above the ocean.
