At the north end of the village, past the campsite, is the start of a walk that can take you way up into the hills, with amazing views back of the village. It starts off as a cobble path, then the cobbles are just sort of dumped and then it’s just a rough track. IĀ plan to get up there with my paints and do some painting ‘plein air’ soon. It’s not really called ‘Vulture Rock’ but I call it that after a close encounter with a large eagle vulture I once had up there! (pencil sketch from my own photos)
Two days ago I got notification that I had been blogging for a year! A whole year! I now have over 240 followers (including e mail followers) which is amazing. Thank you all for your encouragement over the year. My news is that I am now officially a student and studying online to work towards getting an art degree. I may not have so much time for blogging and may not always be drawing Jimena but we’ll see how it all works out!Ā š
Spanish scribbles 
Great stuff! Though I’ve never heard anywhere called Vulture Rock (love the name from a drama writing POV) If it’s where I think it is from your drawing, I can find out what it’s actually called in Spanish. Have you been up the trail I mentioned in Jimena People? You really do get one heck of a view, and in the summer, you watch the vultures from above! As they say here: Palante! (Para adelante — keep going!)

Hi Grandolfo, yes, we are often up the other trail you mentioned. Some great views from there too. I am not sure if there is an official name for Vulture Rock trail, but if you keep going a very long way I think you get to Ubrique š

Yep, it’s a loooong walk! I’ll try to find out what the official name might be, though I like Vulture Rock!
