Dog walk this afternoon at Caerhays beach

Only a few miles from me, got to be my favourite beach in Cornwall followed by nearby Hemmick. My grandkids like play in that stream on the left, but looks like a torrent after all the rain!

Woke up to bright sunshine and blue skies above Potes this morning - a welcome change to the near zero overnight temperatures and grey skies we’ve been experiencing for the past few days.

We took the back door scenic route towards tonight’s final Spanish stopover at the Elephant Park, Cabárceno, up and over the pass near the village of Linares. Road was like a staircase but the ZF 9 speed auto made it effortless both up and down the other side - switching between PWR and ECO when required but no need to engage the manual mode at all.

back door scenic route

Wise choice
Just beautiful.

Weather nothing special to go to far, decided on a run out down to Felixstowe, where by chance container ship the Ever Aria was just leaving port, followed by one of the Tug boats performing ceremonial water salute, very impressive.

I thought they only did that for cruise ships not containers or was a maiden voyage?

Nice car but I would ask for new number plates as them ones are not legal

Had a lovely peaceful night and heading north today. By the way, Huntingdon and surrounding roads are as rubbish as ours in Sevenoaks, talk about potholes, it must rattle your peggies every time you head out.

I’ll be heading back to the pub in 2 weeks, great place to park for the night, great beer and grub and friendly people, I can see why you go there.

Left the overnight stop at the Elephant Park early so we could do a bit of shopping and had late morning and a picnic lunch on Mataleñas beach, from where we could see the Pont Aven arriving into Santander - in the background second photo. Now in the queue to board.

That won't go down well with dark sky enthusiasts.

 

[Yorick]

The wind normally blows from N.W. but today its from S.W. that brings hot weather (30c now) and dust storm from Africa.
Was sunny and blue skies this morning. Everything outside is covered in dust/sand.

Anyone we know at Robins Hood Bay East Yorkshire. Not sure how the missed the signs at the top about no motor vehicles, or read the area as it hardly looks like a through road, but there we go. Wasn’t even a hire vehicle, but think they got a few choice words from the locals, which is good, or they’d have driven up the dead end road that gets really narrow at the end and would have been a mare to reverse down.

Little wonder we get a bad press, even if they couldn’t help it, if that’s an excuse

 

[Nanniemate]

Thetford will never live it down until they change the vinyls

Can’t really hide with them graphics either.

[Holly's mum]

Not keen on the graphics and their roof needs a clean too

That roof needs a cklean.

 

[Mikey RV]

That roof needs a cklean.

So does his glasses so he can read the sign.

Tonight view as a FLT, overlooking Robins Hood Bay. Honesty box for parking so as a FLT, I’ll get my knife and see what I can scrounge out from it. Knew I should have got one of those cordless angle grinders

Put £5 in, does that mean I’m not a FLT anymore

 

[jockaneezer]

I can excuse the dirty roof, I can excuse them missing the signs, but I can't excuse the wiring run for the solar panels !

 

[PP Bear]

Looks like his solar panel is held on with those plastic brackets too and they can’t be serious motorhomers as there’s room for more panels up there……..after they’ve cleaned it of course
