SPAIN WITHOUT RAIN

It has been a couple of eventful days.


We have left the rain back in France & today crossed the border into Spain. Not that you would realise you were riding into another country. I gave two policemen a wave, but they didn't seem too interested. The country side has changed dramatically from the flat arable land of France to the rock cliff's of coastal Spain. Certainly  made the riding more interesting, and hopefully the road toll's of France will end. The fountain in the photo is in the centre of Bilbao where we stopped for a break & Tapa's. Tonight we are in a nearly deserted camping ground in Santander. The  large lighthouse is right next to our camp site. Tomorrow we plan to move on to a small fishing village close to Al Coruna, that has been recommended.  Our ride will hug the coast line, so hopefully some sun to go with the scenery.
By the way I have not taken up diving, this shark was in the aquarium at La Rochelle.There are lots of signs along the roads in France & this part of Spain warning about roaming wild deer, don't really want to see any at close range on the bike. Yesterday in the south of France finally saw some centre pivots, sorry guys they were all Otechs & badly rusted, probably high iron content.
