San José to Cabo de Gata; 19 km

We started with a nice breakfast, ofcourse with the orange juice coming from the local produce.

Today we first started to walk on the Camino Argar. Although in the other direction then planned. The weather was good at start but after 1,5 hour we got really wet. It didn’t look good for the next two hours and Debi decided to turn around. I wanted to try a little further. The weather changed so fast the last days, i hoped for the best. And as the photos are showing, my good weather luck returned! I got wet three times and dried four times.

The wind is still considerable but far less then yesterday. I walked close to twenty km’s and had a high view point of Cabo de Gata. Although i didn’t reach it, i was still content with today’s walking.
Tomorrow it is going north to las Negras. ~G

It was all kinds of weather today, but we were treated to some beautiful views and got a sample of what we had missed yesterday. I only got a 10 km walk today, but later enjoyed lying in my lower bunk bed, reading all afternoon. Hoping all goes well for the walk tomorrow. ~debi

Accomodation: A second night in Albergue San José. A helpful gesture from the owner because of not being able to stay in Cabo de Gata due to the storm damage.Read more
