An afternoon in the rural area of Junceira in Tomar

My sister in law Amélia Moura and and her husband Victor, live in a village called Junceira, which is about 8 Kilometres from the City of Tomar. This village belongs to the Council of Tomar and that’s the reason I’m including a set of photos of the rural area around their house. My wife, my son and I were invited to spend an afternoon in their place in Junceira and in the usual Portuguese tradition of welcoming visitors, we were treated like kings, which included a mid afternoon repast with home made wine and other traditional dishes.

Another view from my sister in law rural house at Junceira. Apparently this land where this house in ruins lies, is for sale. Some people, especially from the United Kingdom have bough houses and land in this area

This is a house right next door my sister in law's house at Junceira. The views in the distance are quite beautiful and that's one of the reasons some people like to live in this rural area near Tomar
