Lenny's Looking for Some Sunshine

[Stewart J]

Still at Camping Rio Jara rain started around 9 am and there’s been heavy showers all day, raining heavily as I write.

 

[Lenny HB]

Someone spotted that Teruel was in the gide books so it must be worth a visit.
So I got dragged over 2 miles on me hoofs to the town and a few more hours being dragged round.

Took the shortest route - mistake after we descended a big hill and claimed back up to town only to find if we had kept to the main road we could have just walked over either the old or new viaduct or taken the lift from the residential area to the town centre.

Past Teruel dozens of times but never gave it a thought to have a look around. Alway's imagine it to be more industrial.
On the old road it seems like through industrial estate.

 

[Lenny HB]

Had a bonus in the Cathedral there was a small guided tour in there the guide came over to us and asked if we would like to go up to the gallery.
Interesting windows translusant marble.

 

[Lenny HB]

A few more pics to bore you, at least I managed to get some substance.

You're leaving just as the weather is improving, here anyway.

There's a lovely area to the east of Teruel. We had two trips there last year and then drove the Silent Route to head north.

Don't go in the winter. If the stats are to be believed, it's the coldest place in Spain.

I thought that was Avila.

We finally got away from Teruel at 4:30 so much for stopover and an early start. So we just went straight to Zaragoza.

Arrived the Aire and there was a Funster van parked right behind us it was Scotchbonnet . We had a plesent evening with Ian and Bev, introduced them to No. 43, I think they went off searching the supermarkets for some.
Nice to meet you both.

 

[Porridge Oats]

No. 43 mission accomplished. As you said the Zaragoza Carrefour was huge.

Now at Berriozara just north of Pamplona.
For those that don't know this Aire it looks like a road but it's a road to nowhere they turned into an Aire with services. It's free apart from the two weeks in July when the bull running is on. It's very quiet apart from Motorhomes only locals park up here access the allotments.

There is a nice walk up the hillside with wood carving at the side of the path we did that last time we were here.

Looks a bit like the one old-mo caught down the chip shop the other day

Now in France still flipping freezing only 20°.
Right next to a lake but too windy to get the paddleboard out.

On La Gourgue near Sanguinet.

The weather here atm is perfect, check out the greenery and the blue skies. The recent rain though has woken up rivers (and waterfalls) that haven't flowed for years.

Directly I saw you posted I just knew you were going to say than.

 

[Littlewheels]

Pathetic isn't it.

You can guess the nationality it shames us,l just pray they don’t think all Brits are the same.

 

[MartinandBev]

Gorgeous here at home in Guardarmar- a mere 26 degrees

There is a nice walk up the hillside with wood carving at the side of the path we did that last time we were here.

What did you carve? A heart with an arrow through it and both your initials

I thought that was still the middle of winter to you Lenny! Will you have a paddle board kit tree like my kayak kit tree?
