Blue Monday

I spent last week in Portugal which is ( among other things ) famous for it`s tradition of tile making.
Found these while wandering the streets.



I hope that someone will safe this crumbling beauty.

    Mein Lieblingsblau ... stimmt, ich erinnere mich an die wunderschönen Fliesen, eine meiner schönsten Erinnerungen an einen ansonsten nicht so schönen Lissabon-Urlaub ...

    These blue tiles are gorgeous! It's wonderful how they look against the crumbling stone, but like you, I hope they get restored and not wasted...
