Blossom Run
Feb
8

Blossom Run

On behalf of our Fellowship Team, we are organising another Almond Blossom Run. We all enjoyed the trip last year and it is always fun to get out of Marbella to enjoy the beauty of the countryside. We are hoping that the date we have chosen should give us a good show of the blossom.


The run is fairly short. We will all meet at Venta El Barranco, at 11 am for
coffee. For those who do not wish to drive you can get a ride with other drivers, but it might be best to organise this before.


We will then set off for our trip, enjoying the sights of the almond blossom and stop for our aperitivos at a beautiful spot under the Mimosa trees. We will then have lunch at Venta Umami which is a fun casual venta with delicious food. Hopefully, the weather will be fine and sunny and we can have lunch on the terrace. There is no set menu and we can order “a la carte”.


If you wish to join us, please confirm immediately with Finola Harrington
finolaharrington@googlemail.com no later than Monday, 3rd February. We need to reserve the restaurants.

The Itinerary is attached. Please do invite friends and let us enjoy a lovely day together. Itinerary
