27th April Unexpected Alarm

We've not had the extreme temperatures that the south west of Spain has been experiencing, but it's definitely been the hottest day we've had so far. Reaching about 25C it was cooler than the 35C+ that other parts of the country have had.

This morning's walk was along the coast path north of Roses. Parking in the marina we passed the fishermen mending nets before we headed up the hill and turned down by the light house.

Off on our walk

We were enjoying the view and just walking into a little cove when our phones started blaring out a horn like sound. I thought it was the UK emergency alarm that you'd probably experienced last Sunday but was delayed in getting to us 😀. It transpires from seeing everyone on the beach scrambling for their phones, the audio and message on our screens that it was the Catalan government's emergency practice so it wasn't just us!

Our alarm

After this little shock to the system we continued on our lovely walk.

Platja de Canyelles Petites

Heading towards Platja de Canyelles Grosses

Lovely clear sea

Not my handiwork 😀

We managed over 13,000 steps today so we were justified having a bit of a siesta. A lovely warm afternoon out on the balcony.

Nothing planned as yet for tomorrow but hopefully similar weather as today.
