On our last night in Spain, we found ourselves staying at a ‘Spanish Passion’ residence, a cider house about 20 kms south of San Sebastian. Free accommodation (inc clifftop view) in their car park, on the condition that we sample their local fare – in this case 4 courses + all the  apple cider you […]

It was starting to get cooler as we headed into the Northern part of Spain so we picked up the pace heading for the Alps where cool temperatures were welcome! Another windy road through the hills (thankfully we hardly saw another car) revealed some lovely scenery as we crossed back over to Spain with a […]

We headed for Los Picos de Europa national park towards the north of Spain.  This mountain range looked great on the photos and sure enough, the hair-raising trip up the windy mountain roads delivered some fantastic views.. although my gaze was fixed on the road ahead, knuckles white gripping the steering wheel.   We made […]

The latest update starts us off in El Torcal national park.  James wanted to stay something really remote where he could wake up on his birthday.  So we headed to this national park along some windy roads through rural Spain passing some immaculate ‘Pueblo Blanco’s on the way. The park is famous for its incredible […]

On my birthday I woke up and this annoying thing was waking me up and you know what, it was Abbie waking me up by banging me with a pillow, and then we opened my presents and I got a spinning thing that you can spin, and I also got a beach soccer ball that […]

Of all the cities in Europe, this was the one I was most looking forward to.  Everyone raves about Barcelona so I couldn’t wait to check it out.  As it happens it was a bit of an anti-climax for us – compared to Paris it didn’t have the same beauty, attractions and ease to get […]

Thought I would put together a post on Frosty – our means of transport and our home for the year. Simply put, we love him!  We committed to him ages ago without really knowing what we were getting into.  There simply aren’t any comparable motorhomes in Australia and it was really hard to know exactly […]
