Even though it is September now, it is still very hot here in Andalucia, but temperatures were just fine for walking this morning, with a lovely cool breeze keeping us cool!We have got some friends staying with us and Zuzka and I fancied going walking. We walked to parauta from Cartajima, a great path in hot weather as it meanders through Sweet Chestnut groves, which provided us with some lovely shade.
The sweet chestnuts are looking great now in their spiky green husks. The villagers in this valley are now hoping it will rain soon in order to enable the sweet chestnuts to get bigger.
The sky was an amazing clear deep blue, providing a dramatic contrast to the white pueblos blancos and the grey limestone outcrops of Los Riscos and the round features of the mountain Almola.
To round off nicely our walk, we wondered in the little streets of charming Parauta. Here are a few photos of our walking and of the white village of Parauta.
