February 22 - Another geocaching day

After a leisurely breakfast we walked to the bus stop where we will take the bus on Sunday to get us to our rendez vous point for our outing to Ronda and Setenil. It is a different bus route and we wanted to scope out where we were supposed to meet and see how long it would take us to get there. It took about half an hour, and we have to factor in that on Sundays the buses are not as frequent.

Since we were in a different area again from where we had gone before, we did some geocaching. This time it took us to see the palace where the Andalusian president lives. The outside is very picturesque, and the building and grounds are huge. I would say that it is almost 3 blocks square at least. We ended up again at Plaza España and Parque Maria Luisa. We did many caches there and there are still more to do. The park is huge with many paths. One of the series took us to 5 different fountains in the park. Today it seemed to be busier than last week. There were also many groups of small children that looked to be about kindergarten age.

We were happy to stop for lunch around 2:00 and rest our tired feet before coming back to the apartment for the rest of the day. Supper consisted of our usual, bread, pâté, olives and cheese. We also made a comparison with the Iberico ham that we had bought at Costco. This one was the bellota which is their best and of course most expensive. We compared it with the regular Iberico. There is a marked difference in taste and texture. Since we will probably not be going to Costco again we will savor this one slowly.

If we are up to it, we might go for a short walk around supper time before it gets dark. Another day with almost 15 km. My ankles are starting to feel all these long walks on uneven roads.
