• London to Aviles

    17 mai, Espagne ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Just the start - nervous and excited.
    Flight to Asturias was on time and the views during the flight were fab. Flew over Jersey which was looking stunning and then down the coast of France. The Spanish coast was looking beautiful - landed shortly after flying over a deserted white sand beach at the tiny airport of Asturias.
    Then a bus ride to Aviles (about 40k and very reasonable fare of €4.50).
    Hotel La Serrana is fine - had a wander around Aviles looking for food. Many places serving drinks only - some pretty squares and attractive architecture. Eventually found a restaurant where I could eat something (but had to eat fish — which I’m fine with occasionally). Temperature is pleasant- cool but as it is at the moment will be good for walking.
    Stuff is in a bit of a muddle as something leaked a bit in my wash bag so everything had to be rinsed and is now all over the place. Hoping it will dry by the morning.
    No pictures yet - will try to take some tomorrow. Lying in bed watching Eurovision at the moment tho don’t think I’ll make it to the end as it’s already after 11 and nowhere near the end. Actually will as a picture now of feet watching Eurovision!
