By this stage in my travels, I was in "winding down" mode and looking forward to getting home. I still had a few key things I needed to do. I wanted to get closer to "the tower" in Porto to take some good photos. I also needed to make one more J.K. Rowling (Harry Potter author) stop. And then there was a street market I had been told about. It was where I could find a kiosk with an artist selling celebrity dolls. I was on the hunt for a Freddie Mercury one!

I bought a couple of ceramic coasters from this Porto artist, but ended up leaving them by accident in Lisbon on my last day, at the Airbnb.
As you can tell, I took several photos of this giant cat mural. It was nearby my apartment, so I saw it at different times of the day. The lighting never seemed to be just right. And due to the size and location (sandwiched between two buildings on a busy walking street), it was also hard to pull off a perfect shot. Porto had some cool murals. The buildings in the historic center were themselves works of art.

I made some people very happy with these buys!
Here are more photos from Laroca Design. Be sure to check out their Facebook page here.
The Airbnb in Lisbon sent these photos. Said the coasters are there waiting for us.
