Humankind has always yearned for the sky.

The remains of Abbaye di Mont Saint Éloi perch on a hilltop behind the menhirs Les Pierres Joumelles (the twin stones).

The World Press Cartoon exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in Sintra (until the 12th May'08) - there were plenty, plenty more - these were just the ones which caught my attention. I can recommend a visit!

My apologies for the quality of the photos - I was obviously in too much of a hurry! Also, as a result, I wasn't at times able to decipher the name of the artist and/or the publication it appeared in ...
