Not Portugal again

Yes, I'm soon off to Portugal again. The third visit in four years and it would have been three visits in three years if events had not overtaken me in 2017 forcing a postponment of the trip.
We love Portugal. OK , it's a long way from Australia but so are so many places. You just have to put up with that if you live here. But it's well worth the effort.The country is small and the driving distances between the sights are easy. The driving itself is easy. There is a good Aiutoroute system . The cities, towns and vilages are well preserved and the countryside is pretty. The people are friendly and the wine and food are good and cheap and the climate is very similar to the east coast of Australia-with more rain. what more could you ask?
This and the following two posts are some of the photos from the two earlier trips.
