Wed 4th April


Beautiful Morning and thunderstorms this afternoon! Yesterday we visited Espuna Natural Park, which is a mountain area about 25 miles from here. It was most picturesque, with mountains, dramatic cliffs and panoramic views. The narrow, winding road took us up to over 3,000 feet where the temperature was distinctly chilly. We stopped on the way down to walk and found clumps of wild asparagus! We picked a good-sized bunch and ate it in the evening.
It has a strong taste and is pleasant but not as delicious as the cultivated kind. Also we can vouch for the fact that it isn’t poisonous!
