Castles and Caves – Algodonales day 12



Adi touts for business so early in the morning

Forecast not good with strong winds and rain but this is Algo' so we planned not to got too far from the hill just in case. So it was off to Zahara where we once again embarrassed ourselves on the exercise toys before those fit and willing made the pilgrimage to the top of the castle where Adi spooked Bill out with his wall walking. A couple of gliders did launch off Lijar but with the wind picking up all the time they were not up for long and the spectators on the hill soon cleared.


I must, I must, I must expand my ...... lungs

Phil, Andy and myself chilled in the square before being joined by the others for coffees and beers, you guessed it the wind had filled in and flying was off the cards.

The scenic route saw us arrive at the big cave and the dry dam where those brave enough took the mountain goat path to the dam and the rest looked on in awe. Then it was off down into the cave where we realised the torches were at home, how good mobile phones are as torches.


the goat path to the dam, not for the faint hearted


Down the face of the dam, who's feet are those ?? not mine that's for sure 


Anyone speak Spanish ? think its says Caves open to all :)


Big cave or small people ?


Adi pays attention to Phil's gynie' lesson and learns something .....

With the damp starting to arrive we headed home before having a very nice meal in the posh restaurant and very nice it was too.
