Spent about 11 days at the Quinta in Central Portugal near Castelo Branco what amazed me the difference in the temperature and the general weather conditions from last year. Last year when I was there in June the temperature reached a max of 42 centigrade and it was very dry, this year 25 centigrade with a slight amount of rain, Climate change is here” but at least I finished painting the Quinta and out buildings. I was there especially for the first two weeks in June for the fiesta in the village it was a little disappointing as they did not have good musicians and the weather was not good.
