On Monday we drove to the very end of the Cape and toured around Provence Town or as the locals call it "P-Town".
The tower didn't seem to have any historical significance except the town wanted a focal point.
The restaurant on the wharf didn't seem to interesting so we asked around for recommendations and were directed to a place back where we parked our car.
The place next door to the restaurant had some interesting bird sculptures mad from familiar junk welded together.
Marconi set up a wireless station on these shores back at the turn of the 20th century but the ravages of time left nothing standing.
The next day we went to near by town called Orleans because the people hated the English: where we were told that there was a Antique train ride but after reading the negative reviews we decided not to do the train ride, but to have a look at the model train display....something that has always been an interest of mine.

Brazil's Ethanol Success Story.
In Brazil the “feedstock” of choice to make ethanol is sugarcane, which is plentiful and doesn’t displace crops used for food. Now, across the country, all fueling stations sell ethanol as well as traditional gasoline, “which is very good for the consumer,” says Dr. Marcos Jank, a professor of economics at the University of Sao Paulo. Not only is ethanol cheaper than gasoline, it’s better for the environment, and it has a higher octane. The fueling station of the future would sell multiple fuels, not just gasoline.
