We are getting into the swing of life on the hoof!
Our muscles are hardening and we are getting into the swing of six hour walks up hill and down Dale. Why did I think I would not need my stick which travelled all the way to London and got left in Louis flat . Thankfully our hostess gave me a mountain stick to take with me and boy did I need it . Negotiating rocky trails provided some security from twisted ankles and worse!
Our day began with a pile of thick pancakes, beautifully cooked with compote and thick yoghurt to go with them .
Then it was off in the car along a goat track termed a road to another mountain village called Zagundo,very rustic and impoverished by our standards but everyone we meet is welcoming and friendly . Dober den gets a cheery response and when help is needed they do their best to please . Lovely cheerful people too,lots of laughter and they enjoy sitting outside in the evenings for a chat with their neighbour's.
The roads here are a challenge.
