Portugal

l enjoyed my visit very much, with a few hiccups, the area is very beautiful and unspoiled.

I look forward to my next visit.

Almond blossom grows around in the wild, In January.

It starts to flower in Jan and is in full flower by the end of March.

It is a very pretty blossom, prettier than cherry.

It has only a very delicate tinge of pink.

Typically Portugal.

The pavements are really pretty

They are not asphalt

They are paved.

They are nice to walk on.

The work of a local sculptor in one of the Baraos where I stayed.

Deodato Inácio Santos.

They are really beautiful, quirky and colourful.

They are created in and around the village.

The sculptures in the woods are most effective.
