Poor weather did nothing to dampen my spirits. Made enjoyable by quiet country lanes and quaint villages.
Am hoping tomorrow to follow a canal from here till it reaches the river Thames, then followLeggi altro

Can see now why the Brits go to Spain for their beach holidays. Plenty to see in the Historic Dockyard of Portsmouth.
Bags packed for next leg back to London.

Gloomy day to be setting sail from Santander, 24 hour back to the UK. Worst part of the journey so far. Did not take well to the rough seas. Cycling back would have been more enjoyable.

2,000 km covered now in 4 weeks :)
Time to bid farewell to Spain. Wish I could keep going but alas, there are no more ferries back to the UK if I continue any further.

Bilbao yesterday was a large city but very much industrial. Not much going for it, even in the "old city" which are normally quite interesting. Back now on the coast, far more enjoyable.

The fishing villages only awaken after 5 pm. The harbours become the local swimming pool and meeting place and and are a hive of activity.

Another sweltering day from sunrise to sunset (21:20). After two nights in a hostel dormitory, the campsite tonight is going to seem quite peaceful. Not a bad view either :)
Pedal Africa Looks like a fantastic spot..... obviously the robbers don't have fast cars .... great weather
