Port tasting. It was very good.

This doesn't look steep, but it was a 12% climb. I worried about it the night before, but it wasn't too bad. I think we are getting our "hill legs".

More pottery

Our beautiful Lodging in Hotel Convento de S Paulo

More photos of the convent and the beautiful tile collection

Cows on the move

We're still smiling. The day is young!
