Walk from Gale Beach on Tuesday, March 12th

Weather looks more promising for Tuesday

Meet at 10:00 a.m.

Take the 125 towards Guia and when you get to the chicken roundabout (white statues of chickens) turn right and drive past two sets of traffic lights and then turn right following signs for Apolonia and Gale Beach. Keep going straight down past the turn off for Apolonia and at the next roundabout follow the sign to Gale Beach, drive to the end and park by the cafes/restaurants.

This is a flat walk which will take about 1 hr. 40 mins. We will walk west along the beach, then go up over the sand dunes and join the boardwalk along by the bird sanctuary, and work our way back across to Gale Beach where we have a choice of cafes.

All walks at your own risk, and usual caveats about weather.

Any questions, call Brian 282 351 674 or 965 528 842

Hi all....this is the snowbirds pic:

who say:
"What a turnout for our windy, but dry walk this morning! If anyone can guess the names of today's walkers, the prize will be another planned Salgados/Gale walk (third time lucky perhaps?) next Monday, March 18th - weather permitting. Brian & Penny"

what a shame they were unaccompanied!

Who took the picture ? :)
Just to remind you several of the lady walkers go to aerobics on a Tuesday morning.

Sorry transport problems. Conflict of interests with the car.
