Llanes to Vigo

Yesterdays  plan was, well we didn’t really have one. Just get a bit further than 96kms and we succeeded, 511kms .

There is nothing quite like a warm, clear sunny day in Spain and yesterday was nothing like it!

The day started out okay, we had decided to do some motorway kilometres to get some distance on the clock and the motorway runs along the coast anyway.  The benefit of the motorway is they are so incredibly high up you get good views into the valleys and a good appreciation of the lush green fields contrasting with the rich browns of the soil.  That is of course until the weather gets so bad you can’t see the road in front of you let alone any scenery :(

The day did get better and by the time we reached Vigo it was actually getting quite warm again. Vigo is a reasonably large Port city and we decided to spend another day here admiring the city’s architecture and some interesting art pieces.

The Spaniards  don’t seem to get up early so it is easy to get some peaceful pictures of the towns early in the morning. (Llanes)

Despite the weather I managed to get a few “on the go’s”. 

Can you see it?

Now you see the view.

Now you don’t.

Looks like we aren't the only BMW owners staying at the hotel.

Sangria & Paella, two of the best things in Spain, Yum!!
