I had the pleasure of meeting Pierre Pelland, the owner of the free museum (see below), and talking about his extensive collection and its genesis. Pictures of more pieces will be posted over time.

It was reassuring to see that the folks who were setting up the fireworks for launch had a fire extinguisher handy - just in case.

Casal Novo é uma aldeia de xisto localizada na vertente norte da Serra da Lousã, inserida na rede das Aldeias do Xisto e classificada como parte da Rede Natura 2000. As habitações, tradicionalmente construídas com lajes de xisto, encontram-se organizadas em socalcos ao longo de um eixo principal, complementadas por ruelas em calçada de pedra que se interligam com povoações históricas como Talasnal e Chiqueiro. Este projeto de valorização do património rural, iniciado nos anos 2000, destaca a adaptação da comunidade ao relevo acidentado, utilizando os terraços naturais para construção e cultivo de videiras e outras plantas. Embora desabitada permanentemente desde 1981, as casas são frequentemente utilizadas como segundas habitações. O nome "Casal Novo" remete à sua origem como núcleo rural da Idade Moderna, sendo uma plataforma de avistamento da vila da Lousã e do seu castelo, tornando-a num local de interesse para os visitantes que exploram os antigos caminhos serranos.
Casal Novo is a schist village located on the northern slopes of the Serra da Lousã, part of the Schist Villages network and classified as part of the Natura 2000 network. The houses, traditionally built with schist slabs, are organized in terraces along a main axis, complemented by cobbled streets that connect with historic villages such as Talasnal and Chiqueiro. This project to enhance rural heritage, which began in the 2000s, highlights the community's adaptation to the rugged terrain, using the natural terraces to build and grow vines and other plants. Although permanently uninhabited since 1981, the houses are often used as second homes. The name “Casal Novo” refers to its origins as a rural nucleus in the Modern Age, being a viewing platform for the town of Lousã and its castle, making it a place of interest for visitors exploring the old mountain paths.

While photographing our little Maratus spiders with Kate, a friend, yesterday, she said "Something is moving here on the ground." and photographed it.
We had a show and tell later and Kate had photographed these Case beetle larvae. Nice find Kate!! :-)
I went back looking for it today but couldn't see it.
