Las Salas - good to be alive!

The temperature was 7c this morning and we ended up with light snow falling on us and trekking through deep snow - in our running shoes. But it cleared and the scenery became spectacular - we were surrounded by high mountain peaks - the track traversed pastures with lovely cows grazing, nice forest with orchids, tiny daffodils and many other flowers braving the cold, and river gorges. But to start our walk we had an "exciting" ride with a crazy taxi driver up a narrow winding mountain road. I thought they drove on the left in Spain - not this guy! He had more faith than me that there were no oncoming vehicles. I was secretly glad Rob was in the front. Then he dropped us in the middle of an abandoned village instead of our agreed destination and took off. Great.
