over the new bridge and down

so we headed to the old town to see if we could find the path down to one of the old gates. this is the new bridge Puente Nuevo built in 1793. there are 2 other bridges but we havent been to that side yet. you can hear the water rushing over the edge and it kind of reminded me if an amazing gorge we drove over last fall on the road between port renfrew and cowichan lake....where there were 6 of us taking pics😉. we walked over to this lovely square -plaza de maria auxiliardoro- where there are again some lovely old trees and a path down to these gates. there was a sign that said 11 min to Molinos del tajos. so down we went. we could here the goats bells as we went. We got to this gate in the dark. . Puerta Del Viento the wind gate. . there was an interesting cone shaped rock outcrop to the left. We think we heard an owl, saw a newt like amphibian cross the path and lots of we birds rustling around. after Puerta Del Viento we went up and back down what I think was the Los molinos gate. amazing views of the Puente neuvo from here but what a walk back up. my knee and my toes were not particularly happy...then we had a 25 min walk back to the apartment. tomorrow I think we may try going up from the bottom but this time drive to the bottom and I will have my knee brace! we may run into more goats!Baca lagi
