    10km hike in the hills in the Basque Region.

    Reminds me of this time when I was just outside Barcelona hiking in the foothills of Mount Tibidabo. I was at the end of this path and I came to a clearing and there was a lake, very secluded. And there were tall trees all around. It was dead silent. Gorgeous... and across the lake I saw...a beautiful woman...bathing herself...but she was crying...

    Is that from Friends or something?

    Off school the last while, so no easy access to a 1/2 decent rower, and no comp to train for either.
