Up to Portugal's top spot - El Torre
We can start the day with quite some rolling down. We enjoy the morning's cold breeze. Enjoy the olive tree spotted landscape. It's getting more hilly and upon the last ascent to Covilha also more crowded with vehicles. Many empty apartments "vende-se" along the road.

Working on a Mexican food stand.......

The area reminds me of a higher-elevated Bend/Sun River Oregon. ...
Rolling down again
... Our road is parallel to the motorway and is partially quite crowded.
In Guarda we encounter for the first time that hotel rooms are taken. We are successful at the third try ("Beira Serra", a quite run-down place, shower on the floor).
We enjoy the visit in a brand-new cinema (English with subtitles) in the Guarda shopping centre. We are the only visitors to this film.
