About Me

My photo
Ive had camper vans since 2020 (yup, lockdown). Travelled mainly in Scotland although a couple of trips to Europe. After getting cancer end of 2023 I decided to retire and travel more. I got my current VW Cali Coast in May 2025 and love it. After some serious MH issues I decided to get away on a long Euro road trip and thats when I thought about starting this blog. Hope you like it. I will hopefully write up here about all of my trips from now on.

I like to ride my bicycle 🎵 (09/11)

 After the gusty wind yesterday today was a lot more relaxed, sunny and a cool breeze, perfect.


Had some breakfast (not exactly an athletes breakfast- pizza and a coffee….), then got the bike ready.  Headed off into the sun, shiny.  Decided to go along to the Nature reserve I went to the other day, have a look at some of the other paths / sights.  It was well worth it, incredibly quiet trails and some amazing views, only negative as the amount of bugs - yuk.  



Kept on going until I found a marked road and decided to visit a tiny village called Delores.  Nice wee village that could easily feature in an old style Western movie.


Then kinda got a bit lost but that was fine, as wasnt really aiming for anywhere in particular.  The decided to head to Catral where Id walked to last night.  See some of the other parts of it.  Nice little place with a lot of character (Sorry, no photos, was biking).  Then I realised my body was feeling the heat a lot, 🥵  so decided against the next village as it was a few miles the opposite way from my van. 

Took a longer route home which was really good, again virtually no cars as it was of the main routes.  Got back with the help of maps.  


Back at site, shower, coffee, listening to the Rangers game and watching lots of people leaving the site (back to work for them tomorrow I guess).

Tonight I have nothing planned.  Will do a check over the bike, tidy up a bit and make something a bit healthier than my breakfast for dinner.
