| | Coimbra's hill is steeper than it looks. |
| | | Tourist area of downtown..almost stereotypical. |
|
| | Windy little cobblestone streets. |
| | | I really like these tiny cars. Cuter than a Mini Cooper! |
|
| | Why are our U.S. gas stations so big? Just put the pumps next to the road! |

| | Coimbra has a big astroturf bear. Why? |

| | | Great views from up here. That's the town, down below. |
|
| | This Spanish guy is a rock climber. 18th-century royal castle in background. |
| | | The old royal castle is like a combination of Disney + Lord of the Rings |
