• Teddy bears picnic.

    June 9, 2024 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C

    Time to get back out there. Feeling rested and ready to go we head off. Straight away it’s an onslaught of amazing scenery. We drove for about an hour surrounded by dramatic gorges before the road started to climb up, the further up we went the thicker the foggy mist became. We were driving through the clouds! A bit nerve wracking to say the least but eventually we descended, the mist evaporated and we found ourselves in beautiful lush green countryside. We thought it was time we went for a bit of a walk so we parked up and started walking down a steep path into some woods towards a notable waterfall here. But then I remembered that we had been told that there were brown bears in the area! I got a bit freaked out ( much to Darren’s amusement) and decided that I didn’t want to walk in the woods after all. So we went back to Ivy with me feeling like a right big baby being scared of bears 🐻 well they eat people don’t they? Have you seen the Twix advert? I don’t want to be anyone’s picnic if today was the day they decided to have one 😂
    We found a place to park for the night and had a nice safe walk in the village, no bears, just some territorial local dogs.
