Vam continuar, en Chuck i jo.  Era un dia fantàstic, moltes muntanyes, vam tenir molt d'aigua, i moltes llocs per buscar més.Plenty of food, and generally pretty lovely scenery.  Molta de menjar, i...

So, the continuation of the story of the weekend's walk will have to wait.  Per això, l'historia del cap de setmana haurà d'esperar.Cause I was at the hairdresser's on Tue getting my hair dressed (cut) and he was telling me about this break up the week walk he was going to do with a friend (and fellow hairdresser.  They were going to leave super early Wed morning, climb Puig Mal (2911 M) and come back for lunch.  I asked, slightly pathetically, if I could come and he said...

Which is silly.  Que està una mica tonta.I am going to add the rest of the Catalan later though.  I am getting too tired tonight.So, here goes.  We went up to Olot on Sat evening so that we could leave bright and early the next morning.  The hotel was fine, nice and clean and just renovated, the people very friendly and it was VERY close to the start point of the walk.His Chuckiness and I walked a couple of hundred yards up the walk just to get our bearings, and saw this:...

we're back, we're well, more later.hem tornat, tots bé, més desprès.

I got a visitor today.....the wonderful Kate!He tingut una convidada avui....la fantàstic Kate! What some of you may not know about her is that she is an acupuncturist!  I've never had acupuncture, and I have to say that it was utterly fantastic.  My ankle feels much better (which she said often happens, and that I am NOT to start dancing and running just cause it feels so much better).Potser no tots de vosaltres sabeu que està una acupuncturista!  No he utilitzat acupuncture...

Just walked in the door to see what they thought, if they thought there was anything they could do...

It was a spectacular day.  I even swam (gasping and briefly in the sea).  From a tapering perspective it was a little more work than I was aiming at, and I very mildly sprained my ankle.  I could walk on it immediately afterwards, so this is a VERY light sprain, but as I am planning to walk 100K next weekend......Un dia espectacular.  Fins i tot he nadat al mar (per molt poca temps, feia molt de fred).  Per preparació pel 100K, era una mica dur i he torçat, molt poc, el...
