Still in Alcala de Los Gazules

We are still on the campsite! It has been so windy we haven't fancied driving at all. We've had these strong winds for four days now and whilst it's been bright and sunny it's a bit unnerving in the van, especially at night. Whilst common sense tells me that four tons of van isn't going to be blown over it's still pretty scary on the occasions when it feels like someone is picking the van up and shaking it! The forecast suggests it's going to ease off tomorrow and then we'll probably head off for Seville for a few days. We've just met a German couple here who have also just returned from Morocco and he has suggested a couple of places for us to visit on the way to Northern Spain, namely Caceres, Salamanca and Burgos. As we are running out of time now I think we'll have to forget Cordoba and Toledo and save them for our next visit to Spain and follow our German friend's advice as the places he has mentioned are on the way to Bilbao.

So we've had a few "nothing"days here really while we've waited for the wind to drop but at least it's given us the opportunity to relax before we set off on the last leg of our journey and time to plan our next trip. Time to practise the ukulele as well!

  1. Go for Burgos, Camping Feuntes Blancas nice site hot showers pleasant location and bus to town. Well worth at least a day. Casa Ojeda for a meal food is excellent but you will get a starter for one for £11 so avoid unless you want to impress your good lady, you know she deserves it Pat.
