Monday 27th
They lied didn't they. So much for crystal skies over the western side for the next four days. We woke to grey skies and light drizzle, but that didn't stop us.... we were going to get wet, so it didn't matter.
We set off for the
Springs at 10.30 thinking we would spend a couple of hours there and we
left at 4.30 quite wrinkly. They have about 8 spring pools, all at different heat
and different mineral levels, working your way up to the
sulpher pool, which we did try but it was a bit hot for us. We had a
break for lunch and then back in for the afternoon, it was fabulous. We basically did nothing all
day but relax in warm water. Even after showing, I still think I can smell the sweet smell of
sulphur in the van.
The sun came out in the afternoon, but of course you were so cool forgot
about the sun, Rod has a red nose and I fell a little charred.
We sat around our van
in the evening and cooked a spicy chicken dish with lovely
white wine, and were only driven in when it got cold. As we were
high up, as soon as the sun went down the temperature plummetted. I
woke up about 4am freezing..... brr.a aa
Socks - Not romantic but they do keep you warm!
ReplyDeleteI think I could handle a day like that!! If you are allergic to sulphur (medication) does that apply to pools as well? That would keep me out.
