1138 - No go in Vigo

Things had been going suspiciously well
Well now, happily, things have evened up
I moved the car nearer to the sea swell
And wandered with my camera to the top
Of the port area. Now time to stop
And return to the car, I thought, but when
I got there it was gone! Was it a trip
Or a trick of the mind? Puzzled, I went
Into the panadería*! The gent
Told me the traffic cops had towed it! Tell
A taxi driver, he will take you up
to the Depósito*. I didn't vent
My anger, because this potential hell
Was alleviated by the locals' help!
*panadería = bread and cake shop
* Depósito = the place where they store impounded cars
