Vila Real de Santo António - Portuguese/Spanish border

Reported by Dipavajan Renner

We woke in Vila Real de Santo António, our last stage in Portugal.

Soon the main square filled with kids....

We went on stage and presented the Peace Run

the kids performed for us

...and the mayor received the torch on behalf of the city

the torch was quickly passed around the square...

...and a final group picture was taken...

Thank you Vila Real de Santo António for the hospitality!

...a run around the square...

...and we went on to the ferry boat...

...on the other side you can see already Spain...

...it was time to say "good bye"

...and the team boarded the boat...

...some of the kids came with us to run on the Spanish side...

...and we left Portuguese soil...

Ayamonte, Spain

Once more a big "Thank You" to all our Portuguese friends, runners and al those who participated in the Peace Run. Portugal was an incredible experience for our team and we are treasuring your goodness in our hearts! See you again, soon!
