6 May 2024 – Lliber River Walk

 Our first walk in three weeks

We had to cancel the last two Monday walks due to forecast of rain

It was very annoying that it only seemed to rain on Monday

The rest of the week was largely bright sunny days

The forecast for today was cloudy but dry, until 3pm

However we had a few drops of rains about half way through the walk

No problem, it fact it was quite pleasant as it was quite warm today

There were 17 on today’s walk

This included Ali and Faezeh’s grandchildren Amir and Maryam

It is always nice to have some young people on the walk

And they were kind enough to say that they really enjoyed the experience

The recent rain came at a very bad time for us

We had hoped to get in a couple of more challenging walks before it became too hot

We had planned to do Montgo Iberian Settlement for the first time with this group

That was the walk we cancelled on 22 April

Not everyone wants to do the more difficult walks

So we want to ease everyone back into walking with a couple of easy ones

However that will take us up to 20 May, when it may well be too hot to do a hill walk

I am not too concerned; it is just nice to be able to walk again after the two week break

And hopefully we will be able to do another easy walk next week

Temperature – 23 to 25c

Time taken –3 hours

Distance – 9 km
