Today we did a really nice 3.5 mile hike to waterfalls in the canyon above the Parador. The hike up from the Parador was wide and smooth. It had a gradual uphill grade. It was a beautiful day. We really enjoyed ourselves.
At the beginning of the hike there was a sign warning about dangerous invasive pine processionary caterpillars. They are pretty impressive and apparently very dangerous. If you want to be appalled, Google dangerous processionary caterpillars. We saw people carrying their big dogs. I can see why. Apparently the caterpillars can kill dogs.
The hike back down was relatively short but very steep and rocky. By the time we got back our leg muscles and joints were complaining. We decided that after the hike would be a good time to have Spain’s National drink.
