3rd Ramble


November 5rd

On Wednesday, we did our 3rd Ramble which was quite local near Coín. Part of the walk overlooked the valley at Barranco Blanco. We learned that the valley of big villas and homesteads were mainly owned by Germans, many the descendants of the Nazis who fled Germany and were given the valley by Franco to hide and take refuge in. Apparently, what we had thought was a bus shelter at the top of the valley road, had in fact been an old pill box manned by armed guards.
