Really nice to be back walking with our Monday group
again, our first walk since the long summer break
We spotted this finca for sale, very much in need of
some renovation. Either the housing
market has improved, or this is a very optimistic English seller.
We had a rally good turnout, including Jackie, Mike
and Ian. It is some time since they
have walked with us, and it was good to see them again.
Our first stop was the abandoned zoo, which is no longer
abandoned. It was obvious that there
has been a lot of work done recently
We were particularly pleased to see the return of the
sea lions, who have been missing during our last two visit.
A young woman was cleaning out the pool, the first
time I have seen anyone working there.
Though quite warm, it was very pleasant walking
alongside the dry river bed.
And this very old tree was a good excuse for another
stop and photo opportunity.
The only downside to this walk is the lack of a
suitable picnic spot. This is the one
we usually use. It is close to the end
of the walk, and not in the most attractive location. But a sit down on proper seats is a real
treat.
And then back to Lliber, which has a surprising
number of very pretty corners.

Next week Pat is leading a new walk, which does not
even have a name yet. It is an
extension of the Dead Dog walk and provisionally called Dead Dog Baranco. The meeting place is also a little
vague. Leave Jalon on the Bernia road,
pass the old parking area on the right and park on the road on the left near
the start of the Dead Dog Walk. Meet at
10am. Good luck!
