Portugal Day 7

After yesterday's heat, we hoped for a cooler day today. We were lucky as the forecast was for 30C but it turned out to be cooler with a nice wind all day. For the first half of the day we walked through more farm land and we changed to walking through eucalyptus groves on rolling hills. We stopped for coffee around 1pm in Asseiceira  in a small bar. We were treated to more Portuguese friendliness as one of the customers started telling me about his friends who were working in Montreal and what we should see in Tomar. Then he brought in another fellow who was 94 and attributed his longevity to milk and honey. We walked into a hotel at 3:30 and had time for showers, laundry and a rest before heading out to see the sights and finding dinner.
