Walking in Spain January 2011

We arrived in Spain a few days ago and on Thursday 13th January, as a 1st walk of 2011, Rosemary & I did one of our favorite local paths down to Cala Liebeig, along the undercliff for a picnic at Cala del Moraig. Here we have a short rest after the very steep cliff climb.
The view back towardsCap D'Or and Portet is spectatcular.

 On Saturday 15th January we walk the cliff path from Cala Pinets to Calpe, note the Ifach in the mist.
 After Beer and Bocadillo in a cafe we head back along the same path to Cala Pinets. This is another favorite local walk.

On Wednesday 19th January David walked with the CBMW from the village of Abdet.  This was a lovely walk in two beautiful valleys, thanks to our leader, our friend Peter Green.

On Thursday 20th January we met our friends Jan & Paul for a most enjoyable walk along the promenades of Calpe with a snack at the "Pensionistas Social Club". Note the view of the Ifach.

 On Saturday David walked Sierra Afaro with the CBMW near the village of Tollos. A beatiful sunny day but very cold with a hard frost on the grass.

 Finally on Saturday 29th January Rosemary & I walked to Calpe again as it was too wet to do the CBMW walk on Cabo St Antonio.  Here during a brief pause the strong wind throws big seas onto the base of the Ifach. Then it was on to the Pensionistas Bar (again).
