We are finally doing some hiking

At 6 degrees north and 4000ft above sea level, Barichara has very pleasant weather. It is under 80 degrees and dry, but the sun is very strong. We decided that we were ready for some walking.

On the first day we took the obligatory downhill walk on the Old Spanish Road to Guane, a small village 10km to the north, and took the bus back. On the second day we had a more adventurous and rewarding walk to Cabrera, an even smaller village 8km to the south, and walked back.
