Mountains revealed

22nd March

There was heavy rain and thunder storms in the night. The thunder echoed, loudly, around the mountains.

Once again in the morning, there was thick fog, then more heavy rain.



But then the fog started to clear and slowly the mountains were revealed




The sun was shining and we went out on a walk, in a loop, around the valley.



The views were stunning, and we had a little stop off for a coffee - one peanut and one salt.












We kept getting followed by 'Mamas' wanting to sell their wares. They would just seem to 'pop up' and start walking and talking to us. We had to tell them, "No shopping!"


We went through a beautiful Bamboo forest:






and met some Cows




Bridges & bikes:






and a goat herd




It was a good bit of exercise - 15km





Then back for a shower & another walk in the dark to a small cafe 15 minutes away.
Family run, we were served by a girl of around 7-8 years old, I think, who was extremely professional and very sweet. 

Chicken Noodle soup and ginger & honey tea:
