Last day of the trip... First stop Convento de Cristo, a huge, old beautiful convent that sits above the city of Tomar. After spending the morning wandering through the Convento and enjoying the scenery we headed down into the town of Tomar.
Tomar is a super cute little town, we quickly found a little restaurant that Ana Maria (Tirza's teacher) had told us about. It was great, delicious food and lots of it for not a lot of money! After eating we wandered around the town, enjoyed watching the ducklings and boys jumping off bridges. So fun!
Then it was on to the Castelo do Almourol, an old old castle that sits in the middle of the Tejo river. We took a little boat to the castle, and hiked our way to the top of the castle. The view was amazing! We enjoyed the scenery for awhile and then when the 2 French guys, who apparently decided to strip down to their underwear and swim to the castle, showed up we decided it was time to head back. :)
We finished the trip off by stopping at a gas station for treats, Lindsey's pick, and then back to our fav city of Lisboa! It was a great trip, there are SO many wonderful places to see in Portugal!
