The young girl I worked with this morning wished me Feliz Navidad at the end of our online session. There was only one thing for it…and having sung this with a group of neuro-rehab patients yesterday, it’s only fair to share the earworm with y’all

I promised slightly closer to home this week: here’s one I took from the air on the way back from the Isle of Wight earlier this year.
Next week: even closer!

When the whole congregation is waiting for you to start playing the Gloria but you don’t have the music and it’s the first time you’ve played it because people stopped singing the Eucharist during COVID 🙄 #SightReading #improvisation #Church #FatherForgiveMeIKnowNotWhatIDo

Central Portugal
Having completed our tour of northern Portugal, we drove into the central region, first along the coast and then inland to a mountainous area peppered with historic hilltop towns.

Ovar and the coast
Ovar is a town in central Portugal known for its residential concentration of “azulejos”, ceramic tiles developed in the Iberian Peninsula under Moorish influence. By the 16th C. Portuguese artisans had developed distinctive styles for use in walls, floors and façades; sometimes they were repeating geometric designs, sometimes they were unique creations depicting historical, religious or daily life scenes. Typically used indoors in palaces or public buildings/ churches, what makes Ovar special is their widespread integration into exteriors of “ordinary” houses. Many examples are from the 19th or 20th C. and can be viewed simply by wandering aimlessly about the town centre.
More of Ovar’s azulejos, within the context of house façades. Also noteworthy during a tile-spotting wander about the historic centre, there are seven chapels representing Christ’s Scenes of Passion, regarded as the “most representative artistic motif of Ovar.”
Before leaving Ovar we obtained a “Pão de Ló” sponge cake, the local specialty, for later sampling; the lady who sold it proudly told us it was her 2x great grandfather’s recipe:
Pão de LóThe reserva natural das Dunas de São Jacinto | São Jacinto Dunes Nature Reserve is bounded on one side by the Atlantic Ocean and on the other by the tidal mouth of ria de Aveiro. It protects an area of dunes but mostly comprises pine forest, offering a habitat for mosquitoes, brambles and gorse. From the hide at Pateira Pequena (a small pond) we heard frogs, but didn’t linger under threat of exsanguination. What did impress was the sheer volume of Trichilogaster acaciaelongifoliae | the longleaf wattle gall wasp, which parasitises the invasive Acacia longifolia | longleaf wattle native to southeastern Australia (📷1). We also met Chalcophora mariana | the pine-borer beetle, native across much of Europe (📷2). The dunes of Praia de São Jacinto can be overlooked from a platform at the end of a boardwalk (📷3). From the hide at Pateira Grande (a large pond) we saw only a solitary duck.
Our next stop was to be Aveiro, billed as the “Venice of Portugal”; the canals didn’t impress sufficiently as we drove by hunting for parking, so we kept going, but later heard from fellow travellers it was really nice. Being Easter, Núcleo Museológico do Sal on the coast wouldn’t be open for our visit, so we turned inland. You win some, loose some!
Conímbriga and Coimbra
Conímbriga, south of Coimbra, is the largest and best-preserved Roman archaeological site in Portugal; its mosaics are considered among the best surviving in Europe. Originally a Celtic settlement (“-briga” implies fortification and pre-Roman foundations are visible), it flourished from the 2nd C. BCE due to its strategic position on a key road linking Olisipo (Lisbon) and Bracara Augusta (Braga). It became a prosperous city of some 10,000 people at its peak in the Roman province of Lusitania, before being gradually abandoned during 5th C. CE Germanic (Swabian) invasions. Although ~80% of the site remains underground, excavations reveal the typical features of a Roman town. The ruins comprise houses of the elite, a forum (civic centre), thermae (baths), defensive walls, road infrastructure and an amphitheater remnant. The open-air site offers in-situ insights into provincial Roman urban planning, social stratification (elite villas vs. common housing) and engineering (water systems, heating, fortifications), while the on-site museum exhibits items from daily life, coins, tools, mosaics and sculptures recovered from the (ongoing) excavations.
Highlights include the 3rd C. mosaic in the “House of the Skeletons” (📷1); 2nd C. private baths in the “House of Cantaber” (📷2); and the water garden with mosaics in the 1st C. “House of Fountains” (📷3)—note the minotaur in a maze on the right. Also in the same house is a hunting scene mosaic (📷4).
The Universidade de Coimbra | University of Coimbra (UdeC) complex occupies a hilltop overlooking the Rio Mondego (📷1); it’s one of Europe’s oldest universities, founded in 1290 CE. Together with the Alta (upper town) and Sofia (lower town) areas of the city historically associated with the university, it’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Paço das Escolas | Palace of Schools, a former 12th C. royal palace and tower, seen from the main university courtyard (📷2). Also adjoining the courtyard is Biblioteca Joanina | the Joanina Library c. 1728 (📷3), which incorporates a lower floor prison (self-regulation separated academics from common criminals until 1834) and middle floor exhibition area. The jewel is the library’s Baroque “Noble” upper floor, featuring gold-leaf/ oak interiors and centuries-old books. Regarded as one of the world’s most beautiful libraries, it actively supports bat colonies for moth control—with certain bat poo precautions. All photography is prohibited during the 10min tour slot in here, so this interior image is from UdeC (📷4).
Within the UdeC’s former palace complex is the Chapel of São Miguel | St. Michael’s Chapel, featuring azulejos (tiles) and a grand organ (📷1), and Sala dos Capelos | the Great Hall of Acts, formerly the throne room, with carpeted walls and painted ceiling (📷2). In the nearby Museu da Ciência | Science Museum, this uncomfortable-looking lecture theatre predates the adjacent Physics Cabinet, an 18th C. collection of teaching instruments, by some 100 years (📷3). The Cabinet of Curiosities is a captivating display room for bizarre objects (📷4). We also visited the Chemistry Lab before descending through the medieval streets of the Alta to view the 12th C. Sé Velha de Coimbra, a Romanesque fortress-like cathedral. Then along the Rua da Sofia in the Sofia area, lined with former colleges and convents that seemed somewhat neglected externally.
Piódão
Aldeias Históricas de Portugal is a heritage and tourism network for promoting/ preserving 12 historic villages in central Portugal. Piódão is on the list: a medieval village built onto steep terraces in the Serra do Açor mountains at ~700m elevation (📷1). Villagers utilised terraces to support agriculture, herding and bee keeping; their produce was exported by caravan/ ox cart via the royal road at the top of the mountain, which would also bring in salt and fish from the coast. The white lgreja Matriz do Piódão, an 18th C. parish church, contrasts against the darker schist stone of the villager’s houses (📷2). With abodes stacked almost one atop the other, residents are sometimes challenged to maintain a front garden (📷3). They do have a thing for blue doors (📷4); there’s no official reason, but theories include that the colour was initially adopted due to isolation and a limited (blue) paint supply, creating a tradition that has become an iconic look.
We took a trail linking Piódão to the village in the valley below it, Foz D’Égua. With the river to our right the path wound its way downstream through abandoned terraces and dilapidated stone huts (📷1). We noted coral-like Schizophyllum commune | the split-gill mushroom, a native fungus (📷2). The overcast sky, stillness and charred landscape created a sense of desolation: 64,000ha burned as a result of a lightning strike during a dry storm here in Aug 2025—the largest wildfire in Portugal’s recorded history (📷3), but green growth has begun reclaiming the slopes. Foz d’Égua is a schist hamlet known for its natural “river beach” (Praia Fluvial) and twin stone bridges at the confluence of two mountain streams (📷4). This was a 6km/ 2.5h loop.
Serra da Estrela
Rota dos Seis Lagos | Route of the Six Lakes is a 9km/ 3.5h loop trail within Parque Natural da Serra da Estrela | Serra da Estrela Natural Park. The park encompasses the Serra da Estrela mountain range and is the largest protected area in mainland Portugal. We parked near the dam at Lagoa Comprida (📷1); on the ridge above the reservoir is Torre, at 1,993m the mainland’s highest peak. Many examples of “erratic boulders” line the path (📷2); these have been transported and deposited by glacial ice. Covão dos Conchos isn’t a natural sinkhole or a portal to another dimension—it’s a clever piece of engineering built in 1955 (📷3). This funnel-shaped spillway in Albufeira dos Conchos is part of a hydroelectric system that diverts water into Lagoa Comprida. This prickly-looking fellow is the caterpillar of Macrothylacia rubi | the fox moth (📷4).
The onward trail from Covão dos Conchos wasn’t always easy to see, especially where covered in shoulder-high broom. The regular cairns certainly help way finding, but a GPS/ topographic map with GPX track to follow is recommended. Some of the trailside yellow flowers were Narcissus bulbocodium (previously noted); others were Narcissus rupicola, a species of tiny daffodil (1–2cm diameter) endemic to the Iberian Peninsula, found in rocky habitats/ mountainous areas (📷1). The remaining lakes came thick and fast, beginning with Albufeira do Lagoacho (in the distance) and Lagoa Redonda. Following recent rain the trail was waterlogged in places (📷2). Lagoa Seca was at an advanced stage of infilling (📷3). Next up was Albufeira do Covão do Forno before reaching the last lake, Albufeira do Covão do Curral (📷4). We completed the loop by walking atop covered canals—having seen all seven of the six lakes!
You can experience some impressive scenery within Parque Natural da Serra da Estrela | Serra da Estrela Natural Park without going hiking. Here’s a look back during the drive up the mountain from Loriga towards Lagoa Comprida (📷1). En route to Manteigas from the lake, this view from the mountain pass is from near the high point/ turnoff to Torre (📷2). The road ahead during the descent towards Manteigas from Miradouro do Covão (📷3). At a lower altitude, Covão D’Ametade is a popular picnic area hollowed out by a glacier (📷4); deer once grazed here.
For our second hike in Parque Natural da Serra da Estrela we tried twice to reach the trailhead for Volta das Penhas Douradas, but access was barred to non-residents. Instead we took PR13 MTG – Rota das Faias, a 5km/ 1.5h loop on forestry roads. Callophrys rubi | the green hairstreak butterfly was present in numbers on the trail (📷1). Points of interest along the route include the Chapel of São Lourenço with views over the Zêzere river valley, a fire watchtower (📷2) and a milk hut once used by shepherds to protect sheep’s milk from the sun. The main draw is perhaps the remnant forest, comprising 400 year old oaks, Pseudotsuga menziesii | Oregon pine (a.k.a. Douglas fir) and a small stand of Fagus sylvatica | European beech (📷3) planted in the early 20th C. The trail offers views into Vale Glaciário do Zêzere | the Zêzere glacial valley, upstream from Manteigas, formed 30,000 years ago and a star feature in the Estrela UNESCO Global Geopark (📷4).
Belmonte and Idanha-a-Velha
Belmonte and Idanha-a-Velha are both part of the Aldeias Históricas de Portugal | Historical Villages of Portugal network. “Belmonte” references the town’s view of the eastern slopes of the Serra da Estrela mountains (📷1). It’s the birthplace of Pedro Álvares Cabral, who claimed Brazil for Portugal in 1500 CE and whose family repurposed the town’s 13th C. castle into a residence (📷2). A Jewish community rode out the Inquisition here; this heritage is evident in the Jewish quarter and synagogue. Idanha-a-Velha is a very small, less touristy village near Monsanto. With Roman ruins, a Visigothic cathedral, medieval fortifications and a 20th C. manor-style house, Casa Marrocos (📷3), it certainly has history. It also has resident storks (and cats), stepping stones for crossing the river, and views out to the surrounding olive groves and granite hills. Here, you could readily find a quiet place for a nap (📷4).
Monsanto
Monsanto is likewise part of the Aldeias Históricas de Portugal | Historical Villages of Portugal network. Voted the “Most Portuguese Village” in 1938, this fascinating town is built into the side of a 758m high hill strewn with huge granite boulders (itself noteworthy in UNESCO Geopark Naturtejo) as seen here from the citadel in the castle ruins (📷1). A 12th C. castle built by the Knights Templar replaced a Moorish fortification (ceded in 1165 CE); it was expanded significantly in the late 13th/ early 14th centuries with major alterations in the early 19th C. and restoration in the 1940–50s, forming the profile seen today. With limited space between the giant barrocos | boulders, the villagers simply integrated them into lanes (📷2) and into dwelling walls/ rooftops as architectural features—although this interior (the Gruta | Grotto) is actually a former pigpen (📷3). Previously distributed, furdas | pigpens were later clustered on the town peripheries for public heath reasons; they traditionally feature a drystone domed shelter and circular enclosure (📷4).
From Monsanto we continued south into Portugal’s Alentejo region.

The remains stand upon a loading platform, above the overgrown site of Boot railway station. These are the offices and works of Nab Gill Ironstone Mine, named after the great cleft high on th ...

Bold Venture Gill
The public footpaths through Highcliffe Farm have been diverted. Fascinating. I am sure there is an entirely compelling reason for depriving the public of paths they have used for decades. Perhaps the landowner fancied some peace and quiet, or maybe there was a pressing need to shift things about for reasons too profound for us mere mortals to understand.
The new diversi ...

“Out with Mr. Gill the artist who has come from town to take some sketches...”

In the 1980s Ralph Grandison was mapping #S_T_Gill's artworks in #SouthAustralia. I recently viewed in the State Library his 1991 paper on Gill's 1844 #Barossa works. Interestingly he's included many of "The Seasons and The Months" - see image snippet. Clearly he didn't accept Appleyard & Radford's 1986 redating of these from 1847 to 1840-42. #artHistoryAU #colonialArtAU #historicalMapping
Over the next few months, I'll need to supplement my earlier work with Grandison's insights at: https://coombe.id.au/S_T_Gill/S_T_Gill's_The_Seasons_and_The_Months.htm
