Weather: very beautiful / Temp: 16 degrees / Wind: 1 to 2 HE
The most amazing views of the mountain region, "La Manga", the "Cabezo de la Fuente" is, so to speak, on our doorstep. Despite that fact that we have not yet ascended. Today's Prachtstag is perfect for a hike on the 342-meter-high seamount. We take our role after "Los Belones" and turn around in the middle of the village left. The access road crosses the highway initially and ends at the foot of the mountain water. There is also a source where the population is supplied with clean drinking water.
Our goal is middle of the Regional Park of "Calblanque", "Monte da las Cenizas" and "Peña del Águila.

Today is a wonderful mild day with almost 20 degrees air temperature. First, it provides for windsurfing or from mau. William brings his 9.2 m2 sail just on the plane.
Also Paul has built his 7.2 m2 and try the shaky downwind from the shadow of the camp to come.
Meanwhile we sit still on the terrace of the beach restaurants and tapas (today, Thursday, two for one).
But then by about two clock turns on the wind, as predicted by Wind Guru wind and finder, so that we get great surf for the first week this year. With the 2.7 sail I am sometimes even overpowered. And tomorrow it will be even better :-)
