On the 25^th of  April Portugal celebrated Dia de Liberdade, a national holiday to commemorate the Revolution in 1974. We visited the flea market for Portuguese, English and Dutch. Just like previous years it was again fine organized by Francine, Loek and Rene. Because of the bad  weather, this year in a covered market with acquaintances and colleagues we were able to catch up.

Everyone was selling something:  meatballs, strawberry plants and a typical Dutch clock! Who liked to go in a traditional costume on a photo...... no problem! And all this at a bargain price. Some of the people donated their profit to a charity! A nice gesture.

A strange name indeed. But every year on the first Sunday of October it is the feast of Nossa Senhora de Fetal. A religious festival where the so-called snails procession takes place. The last Friday of September the statue of Mary is brought from the Parish church at the top of the village to the chapel in the village down. On the first Saturday in October, the statue returned to the Parish church.

 

 

On both days, the statue is accompanied by a candle procession which starts at 22.00 hours.The journey of 800 meters is illuminated by thousands of lamps made from snail shells with olive oil and a wick. Not only along the paths where the image comes along, but the whole area is lit by these special lights. A spectacle to behold. Are you interested ? Book now for this period. Reguengo do Fetal falls under the municipality of Batalha and is 10 minutes drive from Casa Ceedina.
