First Templars now Tourists

The Convent of Christ, the Templar stronghold in Tomar, Portugal...
The peace before the storm - two minutes later this whole area was full as four coach loads of Italian tourists arrived en mass... A very noisy "invasion" indeed!!

Dedicated to a wonderful friend and another of my first "watchers and friends" from 2011.. Happy Birthday dear Christina may the coming days be brighter and bring more hope for you and your fellow countrymen!!
