Porto - My birth town and MEMORYFRIDAY entry :-)

Continuing the uploading of pictures about my town here is a good memory.
Old streetcars (trams, electric cars or whatsoever you call it) like this one brings to my memory the old times when I used to "touring" this town with my mother (sometimes also my sisters) listening to her talking about her youth and the way she "saw" the town .... Good old times and memories.

This tram is still in use .. one of the last "lines" still working ... a good thing ... at least for me :-) ... Just memories ....

Have a wonderful weekend full of love and peace.

(better in a bigger size :-)

A happy and quiet picture. Your memories bring back mine. The tram in The Hague in late 1930/1940. On warm days there was an 'open' tram to the beach. And yes...I was also with my mother.....
A gorgeous and bright picture, full with memories :))))))

What a very nice streetcar, dear Taxonomist! I can imagine that a streetcar like this brings back good memories of you and your mother sitting in it, while your mother explained to you her view on the city! A great entry and thanks for sharing!!!

Me encantan los viejos tranvias. En Barcelona, cuando yo era pequeña habia bastantes. Ahora sólo queda uno, el que va al Tibidabo, casi una atracción turística. Y unas lineas nuevas que hicieron el 2004 con tranvias modernos, que parecen vagones de metro. Pero no son tan bonitos...
Sabes que a Gaudí lo atropelló un tranvia tirado por caballos?

There's always a special feeling whenever we go back home -- and this is a wonderful way to turn it into an image!
