Obvioulsy everyone made it -easily!

Day 5: Restdayloop to Setenil
Good morning at our wounderful hotel at Ronda
Setenil is still quite under the early morning sun
Peggy and Mark do not Skip one Single km which can be made on our bikes. Others reach the scenic village by taxi (its a restday thou!)
The canyon itself is these Houses roofs and walls
Flying back towards Ronda, where there is still so much to see and to enjoy!
Maybe a dip into the Pool?
Is there a better picture for how we feel...?

Whilst some people were having a bike ride around Ronda, Bill, Susan and Chris did have a nice walk through the city and watching the local sights.

First of all, the bullfight arena
You can still see the blood in the sand, from this Septembers bullfights...
Going down the old Watermines of Ronda at the Casa del Rey Moro
Finally, we do have our first break, to fuel up
At the top of Rondas church, we had an amazing view
