Fóia

2.6.17
We made it to the second highest point in Portugal (902 m).
It was a hike from hell.. mostly for me.

The car ride got to me and it ended up being freezing at the top! 
We climbed into a cloud and the wind didn't die down until we were almost back to the car.
Good thing we had the beach towels with us because otherwise, I don't think we would have made it all the way. 
You can imagine what a group of girls wrapped in beach towels on the top of a mountain looks like. 

And now the positive side of things... 
You could see all the way to the coast from the top.
And the forest smelled like eucalyptus! 
I had no idea eucalyptus even grew in Portugal.

Experiencing the weather up there made for a really cozy evening back at the house.
