Now the blog is (fingers crossed!) operational again I'm uploading some of the posts from the "lost weekend". The order is probably a bit messed up so apologies for that.
Apart from doing blog administration there has been a bit of walking going on; we're now down to the small town of El Cuervo, about a third of the 30 km from Lebrija to Jerez de la Frontera. We've stopped to rehydrate and have a spot of lunch in a typical Andalucìan bar, all colourful tiles and loud conversations in the strong southern accent. Due to the heat our ratio of fluid to food intake is about 20 : 1.
Once we've coffee'd and tea'd we'll be making tracks south to the mostly astonished looks of the locals who wouldn't countenance going out in this heat unless they absolutely had to, and certainly not to walk 20 km.

Raising Money for the fight against Amyloidosis

- 800 Miles
- Just over a year ago my mother passed away after a valiant, but painful, fight against amyloidosis. I'm walking across Spain from North to South this summer to raise awareness of the disease and raise money to help in the fight for a cure.
