I loved waking up in the Spanish mountains this morning, sunlight pouring through the window. Breakfast provided by the B&B this morning was toast with olive oil, some jam, ham and cheese, a slice of cake, orange juice and a hot chocolate. Continue reading
A new country today – one which I haven’t been to since I was very young (I don’t really remember that). A 3 hour drive from the Gers and I crossed the border in to España (Spain).

It is so nice not having an alarm in the morning. My radio alarm still comes on at the weekends just before 6 but I’ve switched my mobile phone alarm off for the duration of my holiday. Continue reading
