I have a few questions.

I know it's supposed to be bad luck if a black cat crosses your path. But does it become good luck if you cross the path of a black cat...or maybe four black cats?

Wait, what if there are six of them?

Also, what exactly happened in the twenty-four hours between when I was standing basically right at the foot of this lighthouse, at the end of a concrete pier, to take this picture...

...and the next evening when there was Portuguese caution tape and a "DANGER" sign stretched across that pier??

Cheated death--and bad luck--again!
