Miranda Hot Springs

Ok, I have the very best partner in the world!! It rained on us all day...a nice soft rain, but we got completely soaked within the first 15 minutes of setting off. Now, since I was the one who really really wanted to ride our bikes over here, I was a wee bit nervous when I realized this would be an all day rain. Michele rode up behind me and exclaimed, "Isn't this beautiful?!" What a tough and great woman she is. So we rode to the Hot Springs with rain falling on us all the way. Fortunately this was a short ride (about 3 hours) and we could rent a room with a bed in it with a beautiful mineral water hot spring pool at our disposal. There are hot showers also and a communal kitchen we can use...we are very happy not to have to set up our tent in the rain. This was a breathtakingly beautiful ride, even in the rain. We rode right next to the water all day, blues and greens and coastline with incredible vegetation: lilies, hibiscus, ferns, palm trees, vines of all types, sweet white tiny camomille flowers...green green green fields with cows and sheep everywhere. We have had a most excellent day and are safely ensconsed in this little resort. We will update you again tomorrow.
