Baiona Bay


This is the first place Columbus landed upon his return from the Americas.  The ship you see in the background is a replica of the Pinta, the ship that sailed into the bay March 1, 1493. The port is on the Atlantic Ocean just north a few miles from the Miño River that forms the border between Portugal and Spain.

This photo is the one I cropped to create my new banner, in case you hadn't recognized it.

This is a very cool image; I like the full size version.
