Sintra II


This is the view from up high on the Moorish Castle. It's kind of narrow and there isn't much of a protective wall going up there. Could only imagine what it was like for folks running up and down the steep stairs to get to the towers way back in the day. We took our time and it was a little intimidating as it was a long way down.

Way off in the distance is the Atlantic Ocean.

Hey, there's a dog in that photo ... Oh, no ... It's peeing on a tennis court ...

it's probably a clay court; a little moisture goes a long way on the clay!
