Hervás

Shopping for local delicacies (cherries, ham, honey, olive products) and sightseeing in Hervás today, Friday, and so an hour’s walk over to the village before the shops shut for lunch and then back for the promised bar-b-que. There is still a cold wind but Margaret thinks that this is perfect bar-b-que weather so John is allowed out to cook the meat. Burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Tomorrow we will leave here and head South (warmer weather we hope but clear skies are still promised). The plan is to camp near the Parc Natural de Monfragüe and spend some time bird watching – Black Vultures and Black Storks are on the hit list. Of that more later.
