Gijon, Spain

Flew from London to the airport west of Gijon (known as the Oviedo or Asturias airport) with awesome view of the coastline while landing. Hiked in the area of Los Lagos de Covadonga in Los Picos de Europa with a harrowing bus ride included. Fun meals and sidra (hard apple cider) everywhere. Fun visit to Cangas de Onis, Ribadesella, and many walks around the very nice city of Gijon from our hotel located in the center of the city one block from the waterfront. Stayed in the Blue Marquesa Hotel - quite an adventure to find the place on a Saturday night!Read more
