Sierra Parapanda


We had a ride to the Sierra Parapanda mountain this afternoon, the road climbs up from behind our casa high into the hills,the scenery changing from olive trees to pine trees, a round route climbing back down via the country road to the El Charcon stream and Alomartes.

The summit of the Parapanda has a Radio Transmission Station, which can be seen from miles around, and the far reaching views are fantastic.

Summer in Illora

Summer is here in town..temperatures up to 42 degrees!


Breakfast in the sunshine today.....




The garden produce is doing very well, the seedless grapes are fantastic, "champagne" variety! and we have enormous tomatoes, slowly ripening in the sunshine.
