After we had looked at the books we walked up the steep streets to Petersberg Park. At the top of Sabiñánigo, on Monte Corona, a delightful space with some reconstituted arches.
Life in Jaca, in the Spanish Pyrenees. Nature, including the amazing birds, sport, culture, books, history......

Petersberg Park
This morning, we went to a book fair in Sabiñánigo: people brought their unwanted books to sell on behalf of the public library.

Then we went for dinner with some friends, whose huntsman friend had given them a haunch of wild boar. It was cooked for hours and hours, and made a delicious stew.

Alquezar again
Alquezar is about an hour and three-quarters' drive from Jaca. We went there last year and it rained. This year, in spite of it being a very cold, rainy spring, it was a beautiful day. Once the whole family group was ther, we went on a brilliant walk along the rugged path down into the gorge of the river Vero.
Lovely flowers, beautiful views, clear, cold water. A nice day.
Down to the water, and then back up the other way.
