Oh, so it's Wednesday today? Doesn't that mean it's time for a... Wednesday walk? Yes, yes, and for a somewhat unplanned walk that happened a couple of weeks ago exactly on the day that is in the middle of the week - Wednesday. On that same day, more precisely, that same evening when we arrived home, I wanted to write a post, but apart from uploading these photos in the draft, I didn't get any further. Maybe today is the time for that, because we are in the same place again, so I remembered this unfinished post. So, we were on the mountain, at the spring from where we always bring water. Although we live a bit far away now, when we are in this region and have time we like to come here and spend some time in the greenery and freshness that comes from these mountains. ![20260520_141509.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EoAd4ckCpDhStpgoaDsf91xM4jp7DNYqPnbKMeyDLgTAa99tkvT4cFu9y7HYpNofwMM.jpg) Not far from that source of "ours", Font del Moli, there is another source that we wanted to walk to and explore that day. On the map I took a picture of, you can see it under the name Font del Pi. While we were still filling water into our bottles, everything was calm and fine until the moment we saw the first helicopter that flew over our heads. Maybe that first one wasn't a signal for alarm, but seeing the next helicopter hinted to us that something was happening... ***Fire***, I thought. And indeed, we soon saw smoke and that's where the trip and the planned walk at the spring ended. Meh... and we wanted to go to another source as well... ![20260520_141905.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EoPLAyishgSULBVB6WwvPC68o9gZ6wLmukifBj27jqNNghC8jZ8GZttQN3LR7kekzcA.jpg) In the evening, my son sent me a link with the news that this forest fire was fortunately put out by the firefighters during the afternoon, and the place where it happened was the source of Font del Pi, exactly where we wanted to hike to. It's a good thing that we didn't stay there because we would have found ourselves right in the fire that broke out at that moment while we were at the Font del Moli. Since we left our plan of a longer excursion due to these obvious reasons, and I still had time, we stopped at a small and boring park in the town of La Nucia. ![20260520_145221.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EqNEexfpi4nWwobN18D9Dkmbw54H2trueAPJ1is1TS41HD1ya3Zerb9NXvCxkqev3cd.jpg) The park as a park is nothing special... a few paths, benches, flowers and trees. ![20260520_145144.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EphwVM1h2wa3TkNH9c8gwwrwq8mFGj2U5y9TxqFkaqUyicsVZUbr6DGveP6NpE6AAzV.jpg) The only interesting thing that greeted us there was the game of some cute creatures. Can you even see her? She camouflaged herself. ![20260520_144834.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EoChDcGRAv8wePmha6fPJZFPZ29FSkoAUAfBcYyeve49M1zTaEswhZRn9YjqK9mHDbE.jpg) We spotted it as something flew from one tree to the other. Crazy squirrel! I followed that one squirrel to the trunk of this big tree. ![20260520_145457.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/23vsNAj8qZhU773FEHeggmUjZRAHfKyknG1s3SkTpUVTvb5isSBWasGgptR7SGgLF5ked.jpg) Something was not clear to me. How come I saw her on the other side of the tree a few seconds ago? ![20260520_145642.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/23wqe4FtJo6NciVg3L2oUSHpXHbAoimPC2tJ6taMgVEANPxVZMhikKuvfHnxtBcXd1XZk.jpg) It turned out that they were actually two squirrels and not that I was seeing double. ![20260520_145929.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/23uQp4v1qe5uHnQvv8V4Hgu5iNgUX7f4Ja3nDZDjD6bp2DfXocBJLM3UU46vey86sU8F2.jpg) ![20260520_145944.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EonjafSTkL41qAU9ZLTxHAMAcTL3vBgFr7UMpQRn2ZbpP2udQo1jQAaWUgPB38122vv.jpg) The two squirrels continued their game, and we also went for a walk through a small forest not far from the park. ![20260520_152127.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/23xAXcQR82wnJpxi2sEMYbhwUfPriWbHFdiCMcAYkAyUcvGGJDw7QjEbtoVXKmt7xXNMW.jpg) ![20260520_152210.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/23wMYTYCUoZwZZphPXeWWtvrU38oWAHq9D3gYypGAdtEeiET8S9ajdsQ1LKecMeM779FB.jpg) I know that it was not a planned walk on the mountain and where there is not so much greenery, but the view was not so bad, after all. ![20260520_152429.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/Eq5DVGd1NhhG7oNCdGto7bS1sxpG2CfChExuMdaNJb1wFdEzVR3NhAHHbr3SPdMKwJq.jpg) ![20260520_152507.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EoeESRhDN3ck33gwZDtupqovzF7yJVEUSvzxMqTSci2bz4zNz2C6pUuz7x5DLFesaTJ.jpg) ![20260520_145050.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EqUaxP8TVVtbBuzXNF9vMxFSXuYEAt7JCowadc2V1nRzXey41HrnNANwQwHpY1wkmMb.jpg) The city basked in the early afternoon sun as we tried to find our way back to the parked car. ![20260520_152903.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/Eqqssb7696FCLQW2aurtM1XtKNVDJ6FiH1Jae3nVZoQF1UogrinVRUrRYvM9gKJTfgM.jpg) Oops, where did we go? In someone's yard, haha. We followed a small irrigation canal and made it back to the park. ![20260520_153321.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EoiVfFjDk7wefkakAaV6PeTnCZZdwCuyAXXkyKBjiifAb2HTS2AdXYDo2xpa9u95wS5.jpg) Today, after visiting the spring, we will not stop in the park, but I assume that the squirrels are still there somewhere, jumping from one tree to another. ![20260520_152738.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/EqhMnY6CNgQqtJVsng8ZCXUxijDLCcg8jpj1xNZ3nxgA4jXBwSNixAogYNDtEucBvDy.jpg) ![17810975184572679023736734600184.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/mipiano/23t6v66EE9yeFCJJytuQvbtyDSuya94VKu6yJvZBfK4CWNwhWPsiKCQrbZp3fyA1EMVPQ.png)
