I must have crossed the border between Spain and Portugal a number of times while on vacation in Galicia with my parents when I was a child, but I have no recollection of border checks. Then again, I wasn't really paying attention.

Have you seen the Wim Wenders film Lisbon Story? The form me inforgettable fast-tracked-road-movie intro includes the passing of such a Spanish-Portuguese border.

No, I haven't.

The border I'm talking about is the last crossing of the Miño (Minho?) river before it empties on the sea.
