28-Sep-2014 -- Last month we were sent for work in Villarejo de Salvanés and our "new house" is close to Estremera. We were going to be here for a month.

In the first week, the bosses invited us to Cuenca and coming back, looking at the GPS, I realized we were very close to a confluence in Tarancón.

Today, we woke up and we thought to do our first and easy confluence.

About 16:00 we decided to hunt the confluence, we took our GPS and started the hunting. We were about 30 km (18.5 mi) away. After 30 mins we arrived close to the location with the car and started walking about 5 mins in easy countryside, just 180 meters (580 ft).

The confluence was very easy to find, we took some pictures with my wife and the dog, and we enjoyed dancing around the confluence.

The confluence is in front of an industrial zone, and is very easy to find.
