24 January 2019 – Pinos Bernia Circuit

17 of us met at Pinos on a very cold morning
This included Anita who was joining us for the first walk in six weeks

The donkeys joined us as we reached their field
Jan fed them their sliced apple, but seemed less keen to have them too close
Despite the cold John was in his standard shorts
The rest of us were well wrapped up
We had a short banana break at the finca, because it was too cold to linger for long
The climb up to Refugio warmed us up
But not enough to take more than a very short break
And to take a photo of the almond blossom who are starting to bloom
When we reached Bernia font we were all ready for lunch
And the views were spectacular
But again too cold to sit for long
Gentle walk down to the valley, with Bernia in the background
Another break at the abandoned finca
Yet again a shorter than normal break
Then downhill to the gorge
Where Jan appears to be telling David off

The sun appeared for our after walk drink
