Platero And I: The Tour
Do not judge me with your eyes, Platero. I had the best intentions helping the lost walkers on their way.
I know there is a shorter route, but that couple seemed sympathetic and I had the impression that their restaurant was still filled up.
Thanks to the detour I made them take, they get a nice view over the valley, past the cherry trees - currently in full bloom - and can see the foal grazing in the meadow since yesterday.
Admit it, Platero. They will enjoy it more than just turning right at the end of the road to get there.
