We have arrived in Santander today. The weather is good and we have had little rain so far.
After 31 degrees in Bilboa it is a little cooler again now.
We stayed at a great albergue last night where we met some interesting people from around the world. The host was very interesting and he had lots of volunteer who help him run the hostel. We were provided with meals and entertaiment.
We are not sure of the mileage we have done because of the conflicting information on maps , road signs when we see them and the guidebook. However there is still a long way to go so we are not focusing on the mileage.
Today we will explore Santander before moving on. It is a bustling city and a change from cow paddocks.
The little gas stove we have has proved very useful. At present my man servant is making me my morning tea.
I could not have done this trip alone, Vern has been so helpful and motivating when I needed it. That walking stick is a great prod :-) .
We met a French couple who where cycling the route and she had a whistle to send a message to her husband if he got too far in away.

Yahoo I added a comment - even if it had a gramatical error - all is well here - gearing up for our big boys' first birthday. Glad to hear you are having a great time - Maddie got your postcard and loved it - she took it to kindy and explained to all the kids that Nanny was looking for Dora's footprints. Enjoy your week.
