With less than a week to go before they join tens of thousands of people in Fatima for the annual celebration of the Miracle of the Sun, the pilgrims decide to speed up their journey. They climb the 570 steps to the Sanctuary of Bom Jesus do Monte, try the centuries-old tradition of suckling pig in Mealhada, and visit the tomb of one of the country's most famous women, the queen and saint Isabel.
