Today we slept until 9, got up eat breakfast and checked out of the hotel.    We went into Lamego and stopped and toured the castle.  It allows you to see all around the Lamego district.

Then we headed south, our first stop being Viseu.  On the way there, our GPS took us off the main freeway and had us driving down this one lane road through forests.  It was a very beautiful drive.  We finally made it to Viseu.  We stopped and looked at the cathedral.  Then it was off to Garda.  Again we got out looked at the cathedral.  

Our final stop of the day was Belmonte, where we were spending the night.  We drove through the town through small alleyways that did not even look like roads until we headed out of town.  We were staying at the Pousada Convento da Belmonte.  It used to be a convent and parts of it still use the original walls.

We ate supper here.  Jay had the grilled bass and I had grilled King prawns.  After supper, we retired back to our room.
