A short 18km from my home.

[José]

With a bonus day I didn`t know I had I decided to take advantage of the sunshine and warm 18c and no wind!

The steed of awesomeness selected was the Mash, it is OK at rough stuff, but you wouldn`t want to be doing it all day.

I can see a tower on the top of a mountain from my house, it was on fire in August this mountain and it was on my way to a memory I had.





I made it up to the first platform and then realised I was able to cut washers off my arsehole, I do not really do heights.
The view was pretty good though.



The journey up showing the bike in front of the rocks and behind the same rocks.





Then on the water trail through the Lemon growing area, couple of lovely rivers that provide irrigation all year round in this area.


Couple of pictures of the road, this whole journey was taken from my house on single carriageway roads and I encountered just one other road user!



Then into Foz Do Cobrao

Lovely! Bluddy lovely. However, I am intrigued and at the same time slightly disturbed at the "cutting of washers off one's arsehole". Pray enlighten me.

Foz Do Cobrao is known for just being nice ...This was the memory I had. I found it.
The following photo`s are what a typical rustic village is like around these parts and I still cannot believe that I brought my Hymer through this place!









On the way out returning home, another river below the village.


I love this time of the year with daisies at the side of the road and in meadows, has a real Spring like feel to it, despite being the start of Winter.



I hope you enjoyed another part of my world.

I was shitting mysen! You can see through the floor and although it looks a sturdy structure...I just don`t like these sort of things.

It does make me giggle when some on here, from damp Grey Britain have a snipe at your choice of place to live.

Great photos and Best Wishes.

It’s been a while since I put the walking boots on and enjoyed a long hike. Naturally, I’ve been busy with the house and quinta. But, with the autumn weather closing in, I took advantage of a beautiful sunrise to head up a mountain. And, at the top of the mountain, I arrived at probably
