PEI to Portugal

Today we did a big hike in 26 degree heat. And no,not with the doggies.We went down into the gorge below their village-about 400 ft.,then uphill on switchbacks to the village on the other side-Pedrogao Pecano.Portugal has amazing infrastructure but down at the bottom of the gorge at the river's edge are the ruins of a Roman bridge.From up top of Pecano we went down again and across the dam to the restaurant by the reservoir. Great food and hospitality and a beautiful view.Nicola and Steve often sea kayak down there.Needless to say,after such a long hike and Vinhos de Tintos we taxied home to relax. It was a great adventure.No wonder we didn't gain weight on this trip.Читать далее
