1602

Yesterday's buds are starting to bloom!

I have spent the day packing for our move and cutting fabrics. I cut one sleeveless shirt and 3 dresses. Simple ones. 

Dogs had a nice run on the beach. Even Buddha had a chance to run free for a while.

Tomorrow our plan is to check out a new mountain (for us). We will try to find a natural park called Xorret de Catí in Castalla in Alicante province. It takes about one hour to drive there. There's lots of mountains in the area. The peaks are about 1100 - 1300 meters above sea level. There's about a dozen of routes. Some are long (up to 42 km), some go down to a canyon and some rise up to the peaks and some go around a circular route. Some or medium and some high in difficulty. We'll try the medium ones first.

We have two options for tomorrow. One that goes through 3 peaks and one that rises up on one of those 3 peaks (named scraper) and back. we'll try to find the start point and then decide which route we choose. 

Apparently it's a huge area. There's a hotel (which might be closed now days) hostel, cabins, camping area, kiosk - bar, recreational area, rock climbing areas, barbecue area at least. So there might be other people too :-)

Today we heard some good new from our realtor. He had asked about our house and gotten the answer that MAYBE it's finished before May. Maybe. I think that's as close as we get to an estimate :-) But anyway very nice to hear that.

I'm wondering if I should make a blog about the hiking routes we've taken in Alicante and around this side of the country. I wonder if I had time to do it. It would be nice to have the coordinates and route information and pictures available for others too.
