Trip to Serra da Estrela

On Christmas Day a small break after lunch was enough for a quick flight to Serra da Estrela. :)

Leiria -> Coimbra -> Barragem da Aguieira -> Serra da Estrela -> Coimbra -> Leiria

Trip to Portas de Rodão

On Christmas Eve I planned a flight to visit a beautiful place that I heard talk about: Portas de Ródão.
This place was near the border with Spain and the planned route was:

Leiria -> Serra de Aire e Candeeiros -> Santarém -> Montargil Dam -> Avis -> 
Vila Velha de Rodão -> Vila de Rei -> Leiria




Montargil Dam

Nice location for a house!
