Well what a couple of weeks, I return from new bouldering venue Sintra in portugal. For more information on the venue check the following link.

Me. suz and chris went to sintra for a 5 days break hooking u with percy and family and si and family. As alway with such a group it was a great laugh. With many great boulders on some interesting and sharp rock lead to some good climbing.
Well then the ash cloud took over the world, all are flight were put back a week and with endless looking for way of getting back to the uk. However it did mean that we could find some more of the blocs.

Well after a wet and snowy winter, with bad trip after bad trip. I was so nice to climb on rock. I had trained hard for font which we got snow out of. I continued training for Swiss. Feeling in good shape it.
Think this was the cold trip i have ever been on. Ever morning well below freezing and many day not getting that much warmer. I really enjoyed this trip although at time i was very hard work staying warm and working problems. But so nice to have to try hard outside again.
Suz had a great trip saying she when out with several small injury's. She got some great ticks.
Think we have both come back to the UK hoping that we can continue climbing outside

On wednesday night me and Suz drove to font, when we arrived on thursday morning to see lots of snow. However we started cleaning of some blocs. However over night it snowed lots i mean lots. So we got back in the van and drove back to newcastle. Very disappointing after training hard for a couple of problem, oh well that climbing i guess. By Andy Earl - Posted on 5.1.10 20:34 15
