G is for gathering



Saturday morning gathering in Horcon, a tiny coastal and picturesque Chilean village in the Pacific Ocean. Like every morning, local fishermen and buyers meet here hoping for the best deal. I just watched and took pictures, I didn't buy any fish  as we had planned to eat some at a local restaurant. It was delicious and fresh! A generous portion as well, a gastronomic delight, a gorgeous weekend!

For gorgeous G's pls go to ABC Wednesday and  to Watery Wednesday for fresh water.

white bridge





The promenade, cable cars, a partial view of Lisbon's Nation's Park, where the Expo '98 World Exhibition took place. In the background: the Vasco da Gama bridge (1998), the longest bridge in Europe ( 17.2 km /10.7 miles). The "watery part" is the Tagus River, which flows into the Atlantic Ocean in Lisbon.


Below find another partial view of the park with little water but a  pretty reflection....

Down by the riverside

I took many panoramic pictures of the Moselle river, since I can't pick out just one, I included several in the collage below. The Moselle is a river flowing through France, Luxembourg and Germany.



 
German towns along the Moselle River are: Trier, Bernkastel-Kues, Cochem and Koblenz. I took the above picture from the castle in Cochem.

And last, but not least, here's an expression for Jientje's "A Thousand Words in Idioms":
Sell down the river :If you sell someone down the river, you betray their trust.
