• A nothing sort of day

    15 Januari 2024, Sepanyol ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C

    The weather hasn't gone according to plan today. Overcast, windy, and even some passing drops of rain. We tried to sort out our next moves and rang some more coastal campsites. All full for at least a month. Considered trying some on the coast towards Almeria but looked on Find Penguins from 2022 and it reminded us that we'd driven that way and stayed in the area before and our considered opinion was that it's the arse end of Spain. We were also horrified with Almeria itself and all the plastic. So we'll give it a wide berth this year. Have enquired about a campsite for digital nomads, artists, and permaculture. They describe it as a 'project' and invite you to use their creative spaces. All very hip and I think not aimed at our age group but hey, what the hell.
    John has been suffering from a bad back so he rested and read. By the end of the day, I felt a bit cabin-fever, stir crazy-ish, so kicked my heels around the site a bit taking pics (see HUGE trailer camper with pullouts) and went for a walk. Also had a go on the exercise bike and walker thing for all of 5 minutes.
    Later, we had a knockabout game of table tennis and a drink in the bar / office plus a good chat with the owner, who's from Birmingham. Also we learnt that if you have more than 5 dogs here, you get substantial tax relief.
    Explains a lot!
