Wow- the weather here is awesome.  It´s hard not to be happy when there´s sunshine, blue skies and beautiful landscape all around you.  We left at our usual time today- 6 am and walked only 5 hours today to Bolerado- which I have dubbed the Spanish Colarado.  It´s just off the side of a mountain and there are even ranches here in town.  We followed signs for over 8 km to get to this great hostel advertising a swimming pool.  Stephen jumped in but I just put my feet in for a little recharge- the water´s pretty cold!  PS- At the nunnery last night, Stephen was relaxing out back in the courtyard with his shirt off and he was asked to put it back on...I guess they didn´t want the nuns having any kind of "temptation" ;) 

Now we are going to lie down for a little siesta.  A nice break for our tired bodies and we can escape the intense sun for a couple of hours.  Thanks for all your postings!  I wish we could write to you all individually but I´m sure you all understand.

Love and gratitude,

Andrea & Stephen
