10 on today’s walk
This included Rory
on his first walk with the group
The weather
forecast was cloudy and 10% chance of rain
However it was
much brighter and even sunny as we started
Last time we did
this walk it took more than four hours
This was a recce
to find somewhere suitable for a banana stop after about 1.5 hours
We found one with
this beautiful view
But unfortunately
nowhere to sit for our banana stop
So we had to eat
standing up
I hope, and think,
that the view made up for the lack of seating
It was still sunny
and very pleasant as we started our return journey
There is no bar at
the end of this walk
So we had agreed
to have a snack at the Ermita picnic site
We arrived there
about midday, two hours into our walk
However as we had
our picnic we could see thick rain clouds approaching
We cut our picnic
short and started the hour walk to the car park
It was very
obvious that we were not going to get back before the rain
Soon after we left
the Ermita 100% of the 10% chance of rain arrived
Some came prepared for the rain
The rest of us
just got wet!
