vigo, spain

Did a little more searching and found out that Vigo is a city in Spain, in the Galicia region. could be the 14th largest city in all of Spain. they do a lot of fishing and car manufacturing.

Vigo most likely comes from the Latin vicus meaning "small town outside a Roman fort" the city was built on top of a Celtic village and a Roman settlement (http://www.vigo.com/s/vigo/history.html)


completely unrelated, there's a Canadian company, Vigo Productions, that makes neat cards and wallpaper.
