another walk with no rain

Sunday 22nd ..6 weeks till we fly out. Trying to walk in the rain...everytime we put our boots on it stops!!! Started at 7.00 this time..was supposed to be a bit earlier, but I slept in :) Started at Chris's place again. Walked further this time, went for 3 hours. Feet fine. This time I tightened the strap around my hips. This got some of the weight off my shoulders, which was great. They felt a lot better than the last time.

We were wearing sock liners today as well. They were not as thin as we thought. felt fine while we were walking..seemed to have a red mark on the ankle when we took them off..

While walking up the road we heard a few " grunting noises".. sounded like a pig..but could not see one!!! was not until we came back that we found him! He looked like he wanted to follow us down the road..glad he stayed put!!

Walking up at Carool is just beautiful. Views of the coast through the bananna plantations are really something..even with the odd pig popping up!!!!

The rain just did not come...lots of black 

clouds ..but no rain. So we have not found out if our boots are waterproof yet or our backpacks!!!. We are hoping that they are...but we are also hoping that the weather is getting better over in Spain :)

After our walk we started to weigh some of our clothes.. my sandals are quite a bit heavier than Chris's, so might have to go and change them. Have decided that our beautiful icebreaker scarves that belong

to our daughters' are just too heavy to take. Will have to look at getting smaller ones. we know that it will be cold in London when we get there, but don't know what to wear on our feet in the plane??? We are only taking our boots and sandals????? Any suggestions??? Koo????
