Idanha A Nova to Portalegre ...

Early bus to Castelo Branco and a longer than expected wait for the onward bus to Portalegre due to a misreading of the timetable ... a chance to wander in town, up to the castle, an early lunch ... then Portalegre and Helder at the Tapestry Museum ... we met last time and it was as if time had stood still ... another beautiful connection ... back at the hostel, a single bed without overhead sleeper ... though possibly some sharers ... currently the three rooms are occupied by Solene, from Paris, and five musicians playing in town and likely to arrive late ... Jose, as kind as ever, makes sure we have what we need ... the kitchen fine for a veggie stew ... and Solene, touring Portugal en voiture, spent last night at the Youth Hostel in Idanha A Nova ... weird ...
