We have had quite a weekend of weather - thunder and lightning and a lot of rain, again bringing with it a lot of landslides locally, with roads being blocked, communities being cut off, and in some cases, houses evacuated due to their dangerous condition.
However, a good day today, and we headed North, up the valley to escape the mist, and explore some places we have seen from afar, but not yet visited. A bit of a "car and capuccino" day, though we did manage a short walk between two villages, and a picnic lunch in the sunshine.
