Thirteen of us for today’s walk
At last the almond blossom is starting to appear
It is much later this year than normal
It was the first time Bob and Sue walked with this group
For some it was their first view of the wall painting in Senija
It was so nice to get out in the sun after two days of cold, wet and miserable weather
The sun was warm but we still needed our jackets in the shade
This was a recce and it took longer than I expected
Not that anybody complained
The valley looked as lovely as ever
And there was constant chatter and banter
We made the best of every opportunity to enjoy the sun during water stops
It was nice to have a good path and not to have to watch where we put our feet
And not to have to walk in single file
This part was also very pretty in the sun
Despite being later than expected we still did our usual extension
To admire the wide valley views
The recent rain made us take to the fields to avoid standing water
It was very pleasant having our after walk drink in Lliber square
Where we spent almost an hour
