Armazém Toronto in PDL? You must’ve done a double take! I admit I had to look it up:

I know. It was a “double-taker” for sure. For a moment I thought I had turned the wrong way and was back in Toronto. lol

There doesn’t appear to be an Armazém Ponta Delgada in Toronto, however.

The first books I ever bought in the Azores — including three by Álamo Oliveira! — were at Livraria Gil, which was just across from the hotel where I was staying. The shop closed several years ago, IIRC.

Is a tile still an azulejo if it doesn’t contain any blue? LOL!

Thank you for the tour Emanuel. I like the colourful tiles, the weathered walls, the intricate wrought iron work, the stone patterns on the walkways and the colour of ochre on planters and railings. Very old-world ambience.

I love the vintage scenery, and the old tiles are so creative.
