Mafra

No sunshine today (though we were all a little pink after yesterday anyway). We went to neighbouring town Mafra to look at one of Europe’s largest and most extravagant palaces, the Palacio de Mafra. This vast complex includes a huge monastery, an ornate basilica and a library that contains over 36,000 ancient books and its own colony of bats! We didn’t go in though, and have spent the rest of the day chillin’ at the apartment.
