Have been to Salamanca a few times, loved the motor museum, but those paved areas are lethal when wet. Had to buy some footwear so I could stay upright
Realise we have not done it justice, will spend a little more time there at some point, We stayed at a campsite each time as not too sure how we would do without electric. First time it was snowing, fountains were frozen and our first ever trip abroad in our first motorhome. Glad to say it didn't put us off.

The best jamón is to be found in Salamanca - Jamón Ibérico de bellota, accept no less.

Fixed the step again. So glad I bought a 13mm spanner at the last China shop, so much easier than my small adjustable spanner.
It has failed 8 times now.

 

[Mr porky]

Zamora.
Again another town we have been to before but an easy stop to do with a free aire.
We had a good walk around, the castle is free Lenny HB but you have to pay to go into the cathedral with museum.
We also picked up some wine, chocolate and local cheese. Plus some silly hats for phils sisters dogs.
Lunch was a cheap menu del dia, nice enough, especially at €15 a head plus drinks.
Architecture pics soon.

Hamming it up nicely there Gareth!

Strong ale is that San Miquel Selecta, 6.2%.
Friend of mine used to say after two pints of that he had to drive home as in no fit state to walk

Cheese from Zamora, spectacular

We’re at the aire at Capbreton, parked opposite a Morelo - they have their steps out, and they are HUGE! I’d need a safety rail to hold onto to get up and down safely!

Had to be done

 

[Mr porky]

Bloody step failed today again.
Fixed again.
It's getting very regular at failing now.

Anyway.
Photos from yesterday evening. So cold we brought out the winter coats last night brrrr.

 

[Carpmart]

What’s actually wrong with the step Gareth?

Sounds like an inherent design fault if you’re continually having to fix it?

I thought Gareth was taking a pee !

As much as I like this thread I will be glad when you get home. I can go on a diet then. Every time you post up foodie pics I get hungry.

Not sure. We will see what premium come up with. We are booked in after we arrive back in the uk, we have 1 month then back abroad again.

 

[lorger]

We really enjoyed Leon, we did the wee tourist train which I’d recommend as it’s a lot bigger than you think so lets you see places you can visit later.

León? You're going to have some tapas in the Barrio Húmedo, right? You MUST not miss that, one of the most important places of tapas in Spain!
As an example, El Rincón Del Gaucho.

Taberna Gaucho · León, León

We try to visit León once a year (more or less), it's a highlight, as Logroño. You get lost there. Amazing
Enjoy (but you already do)
And León has 3 municipal MH areas, just unbeatable
