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.
