Okay so there I was traveling along, and the road changes....no lines, no shoulder no signs whatsoever. And then field and fields of cows and trees for miles. Once in a while I run into a lone roadworker with his car parked in the middle of the road working on something...I just go around and get a strange look....well yes it was the right road but this is the back woods of Portugal and this is how they build a road! It was pretty creepy there for a little whi...

Can someone please tell me what these trees around Moura produce...there are millions of them

Okay enough aquaducts already. Now they have lost their luster and I am over them. This is the best example so far though. Pretty cool to see a castle built in the second century!

The south of Portugal is Castle land. I can just see the whole middle ages here. Castle with the nobles and all the peasants working the fields below and living in the houses outside the castle walls. Truly amazing to travel in the plains and then boom there is a hill and low and behold a castle on top. I think every hill in this part of Portugal has a castle on it. The Landscape reminds me alot of Texas. It was nice for a change to have a brake from curvey...

I got up early this morning and toured Lisbon while the streets where still quiet. Saturday night was crazy and I was over the busyness of a big city. Saw what I needed to see and off to more sleepy scenic towns. I left in time to make it to Evora for church! Now I have heard mass in, French, Spanish and Portuguese.
