Antonio here. Less than three days to go now and I must admit the apprehension is growing a little bit. Today, 26 January, I made the last training, and I took the photographic camera to share with everyone my little Algarve gym !!
In Portugal on the Algarve coast there are very many beautiful cliffs and I have been training by walking up and down them (and up and down .....and up and down......and up and down!). I have even been out at night walking up the cliff with a head torch on just to see what it is like.
In theses photos above you can see a large cliff in the distance. Well that is my Portuguese Kilimanjaro and I have been using it for my training. On the rocks at the bottom my boots would slide everywhere: maybe they are feminine as they just would not obey where I wanted them to go :)
Most of the time things have been fine - though not if you put your foot in the wrong place!!!
Because then ..well things would not be so good.
From the highest point the view of Luz is very good.
Well I think overall I am ready. And though I am like probably everyone else, travelling with a little nerves, I am really excited about this adventure!! See you all Wednesday.
Great post Antonio, see you Tuesday :)
