Making the most of last day

Packed up after breakfast and said our goodbyes to the Swiss couple on the site who we think will be on the same site as us tonight. We also swapped penguin accounts with Barry and Waltraud who we had a fantastic dinner with the night before and look forward to following each other’s adventures and hopefully our paths will cross again.

Arrived at Camping Arenillas just outside Bilbao for our last night. Campsite is really tightly packed but right on the beach. We set up and caught the bus into Castro Urdiales which was a great town on the sea. After a walk along the Victorian sea front we found a place by the sea selling BBQ Sardines and fresh tuna with good wine and beer.
After a little walk to the end harbour wall we stopped for a drink and bus back.

We found a great surf bar at the entrance to the campsite and settled in for a few drinks and some dinner watching the sunset. Wandered back to the van and found our Swiss friends parked directly behind us so with Google
Translate we enjoyed a glass of wine and a good chat.

Bed time now and off to the port at 10am for the start of a long journey home.Read more
