Prince Henry's School of Navigation

Not much of it remains anymore...a much newer castle, chapels, battlements, but it is still an interesting place to visit.

Driving up to the fortress/visitor center

Cape San Vicente (Promontorium Sacrum, the Romans called it)

in the distance...even wilder wind and wave

I don't think they bought this one at Pier 1

This item does remain from the school, although no one knows

what it was for: wind compass? sun dial?

An interesting and apparently aged device up on the battlements
