We spent the final day we had together in Portugal in Sintra.

Convento de los Capuchos:  The friars at this convent chose to live a life of such asceticism that each of their rooms was too small to stretch out on the floor.

Monika checking out a Cork Oak.  The friars used the cork to line their doors, windows, and benches.
