Day 4–6
Set up for the next 2 nights
May 26 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
Got to the campsite nice and early and luckily they let us set up. Went for a walk to get our bearings and hoped to get some food for dinner but all the shops are shut on Sunday here. Found a bar though and booked in for dinner tonight. It specialises in steaks 🥩 yum 😋. It is peaceful with tinkle of goats and cow bells.Read more

Was für ein „Gaudi“
October 27 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 13 °C
Ja, gestern war ein Regentag und was macht man bei Regentagen am besten sich irgendwas angucken nicht weit von unserem Campingplatz entfernt war ein von Gaudi für eine spanische Persönlichkeit exklusiv geschaffenes Haus.
Sehr beeindruckend, sehr faszinierend, sehr kreativ, sowie halt Gaudi war man kann es nicht wirklich beschreiben, man muss es eigentlich selber gesehen haben.
Danach ging es dann leider mir gar nicht gut und ich hab mich erst mal hingelegt und ganz viel geschlafen. Mal schauen wie’s heute weitergeht. Im Moment scheint es ein bisschen besser ..Read more

Day 4
Exploring the area
May 26 in Spain ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C
Yesterday afternoon found a spot for a dip which was refreshing. Walked into the village for dinner we had the most amazing steak which this area is famous for old dairy cows aged for a couple of months. AMAZING 🥩
Today we had a lazy morning and then went for a bike ride didn’t look that up hill on the map lol. Now sat relaxing with local cheese from the village and a good bottle of Rioja 🍷Read more

Day 37
Cantabrian calm
July 1, 2019 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
After our night in the fairly busy seaside town, we packed up and cruised on to the north-facing foothills of the Picos nearer to Santander.
We are in a lovely, rural, unspoilt campsite with lots of space and friendly hosts.
We jumped on the bikes and spent the afternoon exploring all the local villages. We actually met a man walking in clogs on stilts. They are designed to avoid mud and cow poo apparently.
Went to a village where the river emerges from the rocks of the mountain and is controlled by a fairy and the village has a list of the dates when the fairy has stopped the flow in the last 30 years.
Possible the cowbells will keep us awake tonight..Read more

Day 38
A hill too far?
July 2, 2019 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
Forecast not great for today but we set off on the bikes regardless up the Vale of Cabuérniga.
15 solid uphill miles and, after a couple of thousand feet of climbing and a lot of sweating and swearing, we emerged at a viewpoint.....but the view was in the clouds.
We had a picnic there in the company of a rather unfetching deer statue.
Our return journey down into the valley was quicker but we were both numb with cold most of the way. We had to keep stopping for me to put my hands in Ian's armpits as I couldn't grip the brakes (essential).
Back to the campsite for a hot shower and final camping dinner (curry of course). It is hard to imagine that this is our last night in the van this trip. Feels like home...Read more
