Très déçues, avons fait 2h de position statistique au milieu de nul part et avons eu aucune explication à cela. Du coup arrivée à Régua, à 17h30 au lieu de 15h, et par conséquent nous n'avons pas pu avoir l heure de temps libre prévue dans l excursion et nous avons embarqué directement dans les bus pour le retour.
