We now start the walk from Lliber square
This is because some members found it difficult to find the car park
Fourteen of us for today’s walk
This included Michelle and Dave, a UK based couple on their first walk
We were also very pleased to welcome David and Sandra back for a visit
The temperatures are still well below the seasonal norm
It was also cloudy today, so no direct sun
This makes for much more comfortable walking conditions
And we didn’t have to worry about shade for our picnic stop on the dry river bed
We also made much faster time than we have recently
There were a few small animals at the zoo
But nothing very exciting
Due to our faster pace we were a little ahead of schedule
So we had slightly longer water breaks on the last stretch
The weather forecast is for much higher temperatures next week
So I have decided to start at the earlier time of 0900
This is our normal summer start, and allows us to get to the bar by 1200
To avoid the hottest part of the day
I was surprised that bar Varetes was much quieter than normal
There were also three tables together so we could all sit together
Temperature – 18-23c
Time taken – 3 hours
Distance – 9 km
