Jan and Paul in Spain 2012: June 2012
http://janandpaulinspain2012.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Jan and Paul in Spain 2012. Friday, 29 June 2012. 25 June 2012 - Visit to Zaragoza. We joined a four day coach tour of Zaragoza and Teruel, mainly because of the day spent in the former. The city was the scene of a long and bitter siege during the Napoleonic wars in 1808. This is a period of particular interest to Jan and I, and we hoped to find some reminders of the fighting. The name of this very ordinary looking road is the giveaway. The road system of the city follows the original, and that made it e...

Jan and Paul in Spain 2013: May 2013
http://leniston.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Jan and Paul in Spain 2013. Thursday, 30 May 2013. 27 May 2013 – Gata and Soldates. Only six of us for the last walk of the season. This was expected and had nothing to do with the overcast weather. Most of the group are back in UK or have already started their summer holidays. Gata is not the prettiest of towns, but this photo shows it at its best. It is not long before we have left the town behind and are out in the “campo”. Or even perhaps share a joke. He looks very happy with himself. The sun had fi...

Jan and Paul in Spain 2012: February 2012
http://janandpaulinspain2012.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Jan and Paul in Spain 2012. Tuesday, 28 February 2012. 27 Feb 2012 – East Bernia. Due to a variety of medical problems there were only seven of us for this challenging walk. We were lucky with the weather today, warm but with a cool breeze. Just right for tackling Bernia. The first part of the walk is the same as Bernia via the Forat, but we then leave the path and head down hill into the valley. But not for long, we are soon walking uphill again. As we rested we spotted these wild goats. It might well h...

Jan and Paul in Spain 2015: 25 May 2015 – Javea to Portitxol
http://leniston2015.blogspot.com/2015/05/25-may-2015-javea-to-portitxol.html
Jan and Paul in Spain 2015. Friday, 29 May 2015. 25 May 2015 – Javea to Portitxol. We had a good turn out for our last walk before the summer break, possibly encouraged by an invitation to Wendy’s house for an end of season BBQ. This is a lovely walk, as well as being our regular start and end of season walk. The first part is a nice level walk along the beach. However this is followed by a steep climb, without the benefit of a path or track. And watch the locals at play. We also played a knock out footb...

Jan and Paul in Spain 2015: 9 May 2015 – Lliber to Senija
http://leniston2015.blogspot.com/2015/05/9-may-2015-lliber-to-senija.html
Jan and Paul in Spain 2015. Sunday, 10 May 2015. 9 May 2015 – Lliber to Senija. This was our first walk with the CBMW this year. It was a new walk to us, and we were looking forward to finding an alternative route for our regular walk between Lliber and Senija. It was a very hot day and we were not surprised to find a large group of walkers for this relatively easy CBMW walk. There was a little climbing at the start, but would then level out. Instead they had offered a meal after the walk. There were als...

Jan and Paul in Spain 2015: April 2015
http://leniston2015.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Jan and Paul in Spain 2015. Thursday, 30 April 2015. 27 April 2015 – Bolulla Castle. Bright and sunny, but quite cold, as we met at Kilometer Seven on the Castells to Tarbena road. It is often a few degrees colder at Castells than Parcent, and today was no exception. Most arrived in shirt sleeves, but quickly donned jackets or jumpers. Ken and Sylvia joined us again, after a break of two weeks to entertain visitors. They brought our numbers up to a respectable eight. Thanks to David for this one. It was ...

Jan and Paul in Spain 2013: 26 December 2013 – Boxing Day at Rothbury
http://leniston.blogspot.com/2014/01/26-december-2013-boxing-day-at-rothbury.html
Jan and Paul in Spain 2013. Monday, 6 January 2014. 26 December 2013 – Boxing Day at Rothbury. Bright and sunny for our traditional Christmas walk on Cragside, the hill at t he back of Stuart’s house. The walk starts with a steep climb through a farm, which has the most attractive Angus (? The mum was not very impressed with me, but “little un” seemed quite fascinated. The walk continues through a large woods, with a lovely little clearing packed with bird boxes. Guess who had the larger half! 20 - Holid...

Jan and Paul in Spain 2013: November 2013
http://leniston.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Jan and Paul in Spain 2013. Wednesday, 27 November 2013. 25 November 2013 – Bernia Forat. A good turn out on a sunny but very cold morning for this old favourite. It takes about an hour of steady climb to reach the forat, good pace fast enough to warm us up. Going through the forat is the worse part of the walk, but the view the other side makes it well worth while. We always stop here for our banana break. Lots of space to sit, usually a sun trap and wonderful views of the coast. 01 - MC - Marnes Circuit.
