Some trips

To show the best of Portugal, is not such an easy thing. But to please my mom and sis - that's easier than I expected. Just after arriving to Covilha and seeing a couple narrow streets, filled with floweres - they were stunned! They love the place and the ambience, who would've expected that? Then it got even better - I took them to Erada (the great open-air swimming pool in the area). Again, there were so many oohs and aaahs, that you could think we were in a private Heaven! Last short-term trip was to Monsanto with Jacinto. It's a castle village that is situated about 40 kms from Covilha. Well, I have to say that even I was enjoying a lot, cause I haven't seen it yet. The surroundings were amazing and the weather great, maybe even a little too great (difficult to move in such heat).
