    October 3, 2025 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Decided to have a change and go inland through the pyrenees, unfortunately the road soon led to Spain border where we were stopped by police for passport check. We really wanted to turn round, but the road was so windy and narrow we carried on to a beautiful reservoir.Read more

    After a scenic drive we spent the day in Zaragoza. Parked in motorhome park which was next to football ground. Big match today, nearly went! Fortunately, we caught the tram into the city instead where a festival was on. Great atmosphere!Read more

  • Different landscape and sheep!

    October 6, 2025 in Spain ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C

    Strange landscape could be like the moon! Unfortunately the roads were unpaved dirt tracks so aborted our plans to go any closer to the strange peaks. Sheep, goats and a donkey on the road & bulls in their compound. 😂🤣Read more
