Aveiro

Today we went to a museum of Portugese cod fishing, which happened mostly in Newfoundland. Interestingly they felt very strongly about one of their sailors having beaten John Cabot on his voyage, although I'm sure the Italians feel the same way. Afterwards we listened to the Canadian ambassador to Portugal discuss relations between our two countries. It was so stuffy that even the town's mayor, who was also in attendance, was starting to nod off near the end. All in all a very educational day.
