    Newcastle..the start..

    November 11, 2023 in Spain

    ..travelling seems to get worse each time...this one's highlights...landslip on rail track between Darlington and Newcastle...= big delay...flight ok...Malaga Airport...only 3 of 14 customs posts open...planes landing regularly...massive queues..get out...go down to train station..but onto westbound platform by mistake...no problem...have a few minutes...go back up...down escalator onto eastbound is under repair...wait for lift...my train comes...and goes without me...wait for next train...all in all..about 10 hours to Malaga...absolute joke ...and a big sleep was needed🙂Read more
