8 December 2022 – Jalon to Alcalali


Only 7 of us today

There should have been 9

But two cancelled by email as we were waiting to start the walk!

Carol and Keith joined us for their first walk with the group

They also moved to Spain in 2006

And they walked with the CBMW when we did

So we had lots to talk about

The weather forecast for today was 85% chance of rain

But we didn’t want to cancel again like last week

So we were pleasantly surprised that it did not rain at all

In fact the sun appeared after an hour or so

It is proving more difficult than we expected to find new members

We thought the shorter three hour walks would be very popular

Perhaps after the Christmas break things will improve

Today is a religious holiday here in Spain

And we passed more walkers than usual

But fortunately our picnic site at the Ermita was quiet

We were surprised that bar Tallarina was closed

But fortunately Casa Aleluya was open

And it was very pleasant in their sunny courtyard

Temperature – 15c

Time taken – 3 hours

Distance –9 km

 Total Ascent – 100 metres
