Nap + Walk + Shower + Dinner = happy

Since I didn’t sleep so well last night, when I lay down for “a few minutes“ it was about an hour and a half. When I woke up, the sky was gray, but it wasn’t raining. I decided to try a local trail I had on Wikiloc, but when I headed out, it looked like I was heading straight into dark clouds. So, I decided to walk a bit on tomorrow’s trail, to get to a mirador over mountains stretching back into the Picos. I knew the odds were that there wouldn’t be a good view, but hey, I’m here to walk, aren’t I?

The walk was beautiful and off trail, but the meadows on this walk were much more saturated than the ones I had walked through this morning. And once or twice, I just had to walk in water over my shoes.

The rain started after about 4 km, and I had another kilometer or so to get to the lookout point. It was gray and raining when I got there. A tour bus was just pulling away, and a car pulled into the lot while I was admiring the view. He came up to me and said: “¡Te vas a mojar!”🤪

On the way back to my Posada, it stopped raining, and the sun actually came out.The meadows, the flowers, the water everywhere, it was just beautiful. Makes me so glad to be alive.

WhatsApp videos from all the family reminded me that today is Mother’s Day in the US. It was a nice way to end this day.
