Reduced to six today, due to new coronavirus restrictions
We cancelled this walk last week due to adverse weather forecast
Today was warm, blue skies and a cool breeze – ideal walking conditions
This is a lovely walk, and one of our firm favourites.
We almost missed
the walk due to road works
They have been
working on the circuit road from Orba to Castells road for two weeks
At the bottom of our road we can turn left (Castells) or right (Orba)
However this morning they were working right on the T junction
Fortunately the
workmen made a space, and we were able to get out
Good to welcome Fiona back for her first walk since lockdown
She has never done this walk before
So it was a fitting welcome back to the group
It’s a lovely walk, but we both found it quite hard going
So we were pleased when both Roger and Helen were also tired at the end
And even “super
fit” Anita was tired when she got home
So not just the oldies who were tired last night
But it was (as
Anita said) a very good tired
Unfortunately our
usual bar, with the large outside area, was closed
The alternative was to sit inside in the “cosy” bar opposite
So a second week with no bar at the end
