There is a huge multi-story car park somewhere in that shopping complex behind the orange tugs (Wansworth may know it) that, as we discovered later, automatically takes your car and parks it on some kind of hidden storage system. There were no instructions that we could find but you drive into one of the many big lifts, and at some point you leave your car in the lift and the system does the rest. Not knowing any of this, we blocked the system up for a couple of hours and very nearly inserted ourselves on some automated conveyor system to be parked in with the car. We would not have been able to retrieve the car as we would have been in it!
Always wondered how long before they found our skeletons! Never went back.
Vigo remains our favourite City.
 
I would certainly do that. He's far more interesting than the people who seem to pick on him all the t8me.
The wonderful thing I take back from cruising unhurriedly along in a modest boat, be the plethora of genuinely interesting characters you are lucky enough to meet along the way if you let them in.

There was this bloke in Cangas who knew a few too😊

Thanks for that. For anyone curious (like me) this is it: Colón Centro Car park in Rúa Colón, 28, Vigo | Parclick
