Goats and markets
During our quiet day at home yesterday we were visited again by another goat herd and Juan (we think) the herder. Even though neither of us were able to speak each others' language, we managed to set up a date this morning to watch the milking process at the nearby farm (about 200 metres away in the hills).

More soon.

Private Beaches
... a bit we had found it. Our own little paridise.....we ran down onto the sand and settled in for a nice day at the beach.

Next stop, round 2 of the Nationl Park Conquest.

I think you'll agree, though, that these pictures speak for themselves.
