The sky was on fire!

We had a nice relaxing day yesterday. Max took a day off from driving, and he just sat in the desert enjoying the sunshine and blue sky. Ruth and I did get out for a walk though, just to explore the area and see some of the desert scenery.

Sunrise out our side window.

The Abanilla Desert.

Looking back at Max.

The erosion makes for some interesting photos.




The temperature was nice, and there was a lot of sun, but it was windy.

Cactus in the desert.

They've had some luck growing oranges here.


Me!

Ruth!


Max.


By the time we were done, the wind had settled down and it was actually quite warm. I think the high got up to about 22C (72F). Very pleasant.

Back at Max, I had an afternoon nap, followed by our typical games of backgammon and cribbage. 

Looks like we might have a good sunset!

Starting to get orange.

Ten minutes later, the sky was on fire!

Very cool sunset!

We're moving on today. Not very far though, only about 35 kms (22 miles) for a change of scenery and some more hiking trails. The weather keeps warming up... calling for a high of 25C (77F) today. Shorts and t-shirt weather!

    1. There was definitely some beautiful scenery at our spot and boy did we ever have some beautiful sunrises and sunsets there.

      If you love deserts then you should enjoy our visit to both Morocco and to Mauritania!
