U3A Oliva Amblers enjoy the almonds

THE group’s amble on Tuesday February 7, around the wonderful almond orchards at Alcalali, was preceded by a guided tour of the Torre Medieval de Alcalali plus a visit to the old Oil Mill museum.

Tour guide for the day was Maria, a member of the Alcalali tourist office who gave a very informative and interesting presentation of the Torre Medieval de Alcalali and old buildings around the centre of Alcalali. After the tour the group took an amble around the almond orchards and was amazed at the wonderful sights of the almond trees in full blossom.

During February the Alcalali Tourist Office organise many events, to find out more about these events go to the Alcalali.es website.

After the amble the group enjoyed a lovely lunch at one of the popular restaurants in Alcalali.

All in all it was a great day out, enjoyed by over 35 members of the U3A Oliva Amblers group.
