We went hiking in the hills in and found a river to swim and I forgot my swim suit, there were other people present and I wasn’t wearing my car crash pants, no swimming for me. We walked along a gorge with a sheer drop, I crawled just in case but Sunny and R leaped along like spring lambs, I thought they were going to jump off the edge. When we arrived it was 1pm and full sun, who goes hiking in full sun? It was hot.<\/p>\n
We left Spain and went to see some wonderful old (time wise) friends and their family, we were made most welcome and had a really lovely time. \u00a0We left them in a beautiful village and drove back to Spain, to San Sebastian, where we arrived as it started to rain.<\/p>\n
We hadn’t booked anywhere to stay but found a campsite, parked on some grass next to the septic tank, ate and went to sleep. \u00a0It started to really pour at 2.30am and by 6.30 we were beginning to think that we might get stuck in the mud so we packed up the bedclothes and left just as a river was forming in the middle of the site.<\/p>\n
We were aiming to drive the Camino de Santiago and see the sights but the clouds were so low that we couldn’t even see the sea. \u00a0With so little sleep and no breakfast the curly roads were making us decidedly grumpy and nauseous. \u00a0We kept missing our turns even though there is a sat nav. \u00a0We decided that we would divorce by half past two and we would never ever walk the Camino, which we had considered, \u00a0because if we couldn’t cope in our snug and warm van, how could we manage to walk burdened and bent with belongings on our backs like the soaking wet people we were passing?<\/p>\n
We finally found a campsite in Llanes next to a spectacular beach and hopefully tomorrow the sun will shine. \u00a0I actually don’t care if it doesn’t because I packed my wetsuit but R being a sun worshipper will not find his mood improved if it rains again.<\/p>\n
We finally managed to book a ferry to Corfu, 17th September but we have to email four days before just to find out if it has been cancelled.<\/p>\n
Yup we’re having fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
