3rd – 4th June 2015
Bakio to Santander
Well today there was more spectacular coast to look at and more coffee to be drunk, especially now that Jon from Gaztelu-Begt (which is Basque for Castle Eye, last nights hotel) has taught Maurice how to order flat whites.  Once again we didn't get very far but this is a holiday after all.  We also decided to have a day off and just take a long walk and appreciate the beach scenery.

On the go photo’s





Santander is a nice little city of about 200,000 with great beaches and a relaxed feel about the whole place. The Casino looked good but I don’t think we would have matched the dress code.

Yesterday when we got back to our hotel the lady at reception told us that the police had been looking at out bike so she went out to see what was going on.  It was only then she realised our bike was from Australia she was so impressed she wanted to take photo’s.

Mr Pitt this one is for you. Despite the sign there are still some topless sun seekers :)

We have just got back to the room after spending the evening next door drinking wine, beer, coffee and eating heaps of Tapas for a total of 36 Euro which is about $55. So it is just as well the blog is up to date now :)
