One of the lowest highest points we've ever been to (and definitely the smelliest)

Viseu / Torre (Sierra de Estrella)

After chatting for a while to some Aussies sitting next to us at breakfast and finding we had quite a bit in common with regards to how we travel, we drove an hour and a half to the highest point in Portugal, which interestingly can be driven all the way to (and around if you really wanted). 

We were surprised to see a little bit of snow on the ground as we approached Torre, Sierra de Estrella, 1993m above sea level (235m lower than Mt. Kosciusko). There were domes of an old radar station and grazing cows making music from the bells around their necks.

The shops were the strongest smelling we had ever visited with mountains of strong cheese and cured meats, which the shop staff insisted we taste, all while we insisted that we didn't want to. After a quick lunch in the restaurant we drove back to Viseu with some great views on our way back down.

Later that day M explored more of Viseu, before we revisited the bar we went to yesterday before dinner (which in Portugal is only slightly less late than it is in Spain).
