I adored Bordeaux, and this water area was one of my favourite spots.
The strong restrictions on taking photos of people in France meant that the mist was very welcome
I didn’t know it was strict in Portugal. Hungary has the tightest rules I know of, and France is difficult. As I love street photography I have to be careful what I do. Now I know to watch my step in Portugal too.
Very pretty yacth basin. I would hate to try navigating my boat out in the fog. We have visited relatives there who branch from those not coming to America in the late 1700’s, a couple of times. The generations now haven’t come here. Picou and Pitre. The Pitre’s left their family name on a chateau across the river in the Graves area, they make and sell a red Graves wine. Chartres (spelling??) Pitres. It is sold here. We drop in when we are in the area, come home with a couple of half cases. The new owners are glad to see us and to visit for a bit.

Ahh sounds like Portugal on the photo restrictions. It’s a good thing though I think, even if a nuisance at times!
