Walking on the roof of Spain




Tito and Willow made a new trip to the Sierra Nevada today, and this time in the company of Willow's passionate mountain-man dad. Taking the bus up to Hoya de la Mora, the hikers got a small cold-shock. At least the two younger ones... (0 degrees and a cold wind does feel bloody cold if you are used to 25.) Not only was the air very cold, but also a bit thin as they walked up to about 3,200 m. Veleta proved itself to be a beautiful mountain, bathing itself in sunlight. During the 5 hours trip, they saw 2 butterflies, 2 different kinds of birds (unidentified), 5 wild mountain goats and a lot of icicles. 3 baguettes ala Willow were consumed, as were 2 bars of chocolate and several litres of water. As they ones again reached their starting-point, they were all by very good mood, feeling warm again and dreaming about a hot bath and a foot massage.
