... a dedicated band saw in one supermarket for cutting up the larger slabs of the stuff. Sue has offered to cook some for me but the smell is sufficiently disgusting to deter me.<br><br>The British are few and far between. We are a bit of a novelty around this part of Portugal but we did meet a young couple who were as pleased as we were to do a book exchange. <br><br>We found a leaflet advertising ...

Fatima<br>On the 13th of each month from May to October 1917, the Virgin Mary is said to have appeared to three shepherd children - Lúcia dos Santos (age 10) and her cousins Jacinta (age 7) and Francisco Marto (age 9) - in the fields outside the village of Aljustrel near Fatima. The children later said that her coming had been preceded by an "angel of peace ...

... s way too salty.<br><br>Before we left the restaurant, several Sicilians tourists wanna take pictures with us. They didn't speak any English... and I was trying to ask "di dove sei".... well they didn't reply either. Anyway, after some confusion we found that they were from Sicily and we took pictures together. One old man said "Buon Viaggio" to us. Before I left, I said "Ciao Ciao, Buon Viaggio!" <br>

In the morning we went to Obidos, an old castle/city. There was a medieval festival the day before (just ended the day before or we would have seen people dressed in Medieval clothings!). Because of the end of the festival, we couldn't really go anywhere. So we ended up just climbing up a wall, took ...

... 8211; Obidos being the highlight. Obidos is an incredibly well preserved medieval walled village full of character. Definitely worth a visit if you&#8217;re in the area.<br><br>And while Lisbon was one of the nicest surprises of our travels yet, the enjoyment from the rest and relaxation along the coast was not far behind. Yes, even I was able to sit and enjoy the sun and quiet.<br><br>For more photos check out Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/27086162@N 04/sets/72157621594823972/ <br>

... etc. After roaming about for a good hour, we came back to the hotel to pick up our luggage.<br><br>On the way to Nazare, we saw signboards of Figueira da Foz so we drove that way to have a look. It was a lovely beach town &amp; a bustling port. Instead of taking the Motorway, we drove on the internal road to Nazare. We were overjoyed on reaching Albergaria Mar Bravo, our hotel. It was on the ...

... fixed and Miffy is sewn up too. Repairs and maintenance time. The camping park is getting strange. There is a man in his brown and beige stripey dressing gown and Crocs who dyes his facial hair a different colour everyday then runs around like a werewolf at night making noises in the trees. Freaky! There is also a Japanese boy here who sleeps on the sand in the cold instead of putting his tent up. What does he do all day? Not sure but we think he watches his washing dry ...

... the locals cheer on their favourite vehicle in the local car rally For you fashion girls - BRIGHT YELLOW is the in colour.  Doesnºt matter if itºs shoes, purses, casual wear or high fashion - yellow is it !! Weºre now staying in a small fishing village 2 hours north of Lisbon called Nazare.  We were very concerned about where the bus was taking us as nothing was looking appealing.  Then around the corner came Nazare - a beautiful little town ...

... style while the Gothic portal survived. The monastery houses the most romantic tombs of Portugal - those of King Pedro and his murdered love Inés de Castro. This is quite a story which you can read about it in Wikipedia under Pedro 1 nof Portugal.
