Day 8 a visit to the medieval castle in Silves, Portugal

This town less than 10 km inland was the last Western outpost of the Moors.

The castle itself was restored in the 1940s.  Then, they added a neat coffee shop and facilities just recently.  We had wonderful shrimp po boy sandwiches with tons of fresh arugula.



This is a shot with a guy from the Crusades, who detoured to win the fort back from the Moors, in front of the castle as you enter.
Wore a cotton jacket from Focus (Ruperts, of course) and a tye dye tshirt from TJ's with my jeans.
