We are starting to get into our stride–walked 22.5 km (14) today. It was cold and rainy when we started, warmed enough to make it comfortable for walking, and remained overcast all day. The road was filled with snails, which the Portuguese collect for food. This evening, the Templar town of Tomar, the restaurant specialty was snails. People eat them with a toothpick and wash it down with a beer. Seemed like to much work for me.

What no broken bones or gashes! Say hi to Dennis.
So far so good, Dave. Nothing more serious than tired feet and legs.
hi jane and dennis-
i think i would have to drink a lot of beer to eat some snails. by the way, how is portuguese beer?
Phil,
I have found the wine and beer to be excellent. Did you not try it when you were here last?
