What a long day! Rob and I were tired of the desert and the wind so we went over the mountains to see what we could see... and saw an amazing change in the geography. From barren desolate desert to huge orchards of oranges and olives. The sweet aroma from the organge groves is devine. To me it almost smelled like clover but Rob described it as almost like wintergreen. There are little fruit stands along the way selling everything from oranges, tangerines to olives and almonds and honey. We stopped at one and picked up a huge bag of navel oranges and some jars of olives. The oranges are as big as grapefruits and so succulent you have to have a napkin to catch the juice.
But it was a long trip... we didn't reach the campground until almost 7:00 pm. Too Long a day!
