Rock window. Jagged granite.

Rock window. Jagged granite.
Sierra de La Cabrera. In the gap: The plateau of the Meseta Sur stretching out below for hundreds of kilometres to the south. And Madrid is down there too, invisible in the industrial and car-induced smog.

Yet another glorious rock window. I love the sharpness of the granite and the lovely vista just beyond

I did a god long walk there yesterday, Eunice, my first in over a year! How things change. In my first year in Spain I came here twice a week!
Photos to be uploaded over time!
Thank you and best wishes,
Andy

Many thanks Keith!
Yesterday saw my return for a walk here after a year or more! My pedometer on my phone congratulated me for breaking my daily record (40, 512 steps). In times past I would regularly do much more - this record is only since I downloaded the app a couple of months ago. What is doesn't say is what altitude you've climbed through the day and from a health perspective that is just as important.
I walk a lot on weekdays too; between classes all over Madrid, some of which are a long way from station or bus stop. My average is 12,000 steps, I have just discovered. But as temperatures are going to to climb into the100s soon, I will have to stop (it's too much) - and just keep to the (slightly) cooler hills at the weekend; at least they tend to generate a cooling breeze which the furnace-like Madrid on the plain certainly doesn't!

Superb light and shade Andy. You beat my 12,000 steps yesterday by quite a way then :)

Thank you, Rosa!
I would be happy with 12,000 on a normal working day for me. But I expect to do considerably more on a day in the country of course! I just don't get many opportunities these days!

A great scene, another reason for taking the shortcut! My new phone also has a step counter, the less said the better!

Thank you, George. I actually downloaded an app for steps when I got my new phone, before I realised there was a step counter already with the phone. They are competing with each other. I accept whichever gives the highest reading at the end of the day, and they do vary, sometimes by 100s of steps!
