7 May 2018 – Granadella

Eleven of us for today’s walk
Anita’s husband Jan joined us for the first time
It was also nice to welcome back Carol and John
In fact there were four John’s today, we will have to start numbering them
There were also two Jan’s (female) and one Jan (male)
As we reached the coast there was a lot of cloud and mist
In fact we were a little concerned that there might be a storm building up
However it cleared as we reached the fort
It was now quite warm, but with a cool breeze
Everyone enjoyed our banana break
And as always there was no shortage of conversation
Everyone managed the chain on the coastal path and the steep climb to the mirador
Then downhill to the beach and our picnic lunch
Anita made herself comfortable after our picnic
And she was not the only one
But we had to get started again before everyone got too settled
There is a steep climb back up to the cars but frequent stops and the cool wind made it seem easier than usual
We had a crisis when the first bar was closed, and then the second
But we persevered and the third was open
Walk Stats
Distance -  8.5 km
Time Taken – 5 hours
Total Ascent – 360 metres
