May 5, 2005 - Gorliz - finally................

Oh my hat - all we wanted to do was stay in or near Bilbao!!!! What a mission - there were absolutely no campsites to be found! We have been getting very frustrated with Spain - their signposting is nothing like France!! Anyway we finally managed to find a map of a campsite in some dodgy little coastal town just outside of Bilbao. ... Pikey steamed up due to all the mountain passes so whilst she was cooling off we took a little walk and hey presto! That is what it seems to take here in Spain - a lot of luck! Anyway we are all set to get into Bilbao first thing tomorrow ...

Jul 19, 2004 - Estoy en San Sebastian y estoy muy cansado!

What a wonderful experience to see The Tour De France in person! I am very tired after a long weekend of very little sleep and no shower, other then the shower from nature I was blessed with on Friday afternoon, and a dip in the cold river streams of the mountains on Saturday. From what I can tell so far certainly San Sebastian could be a candidate for that spot. ...
