Our wish for nice weather came true this morning, and we awoke to a clear but cool and windy day. After breakfast in our hotel we walked up to the castle. Every step presented a photo op - so much to see and appreciate in this beautiful little village. The castle is huge, and had been modified by each group that has controlled the area, though the castle defences have never been breached. The wall around the village is continuous-restoration and infrastructure and the millions spent to preserve the castle are mind-boggling. A few years ago the streets were torn up and Wifi was installed throughout the entire town.
Our time in Portugal is getting shorter - only a few days remain. Thursday we will go to a winery nearby Loule for a tour and tasting, then on Saturday drive to Lisbon, turn in our car, and get ready to fly on March 1. Hope to file one more "report" before we return.
