This week’s episode has a bit of everything — coastal walks, mountain views, free aires, and even a few emotional moments ❤️

We stopped at some amazing places along the way:
🌄 Gorbea – peaceful walks in the Basque hills
🏘 Santillana del Mar – wandering the old town (and yes, we found a great paid aire!)
🏖 Playa de la Luna – beach strolls and sea air
🌊 Ribadesella – watching surfers at sunset from a free aire
🚴 Proaza – cycling the Bear Trail 🐻
💡 Cabo Busto – a clifftop park-up by the lighthouse that took our breath away

And… Sarah shares an emotional update on how her van repairs are going back in the UK 😢💪

It’s a real mix of good news, bad news, and beautiful views!

What is the difference between parking up for the night and camping? The Spanish have nailed it with a clear sign. Only thing they seem to have missed is no sh***** in the bushes

Stunning walk exploring the caves and natural maze of rock stacks Playa De Catedrales. Walked back to van.
HORROR keys not in pocket.
F**kerty F**k tide was coming in and I must have walked a couple of miles. I have an apple tag on my keys. Opened up the app, yep looks like still on beach. Still a lot of visitors on the beach. We (me and Luna) ran down to the beach, checked the app, now showing at car park above cliffs, was this for real or a miss reading? Ran back along beach up to car park. The reading had moved again back towards beach. There are steep steps to the beach. Stood at the top of them and I got a ping from app to say they were next to me…. Some kind soul had found them and put them on the top of a fence post!
Next hour was spent taking the key fob apart to remove sand and dry them out. I must have dropped them in a pool of sea water. Next few days will be a test to see if any corrosion is going to take place on the circuit board. But for now happy!
Good grief what will go wrong next on this trip!

Still hanging around North West Spain with Luna

Wrong dogs, wrong country!
Still waiting for my van, there have been unexpected delivery delays with parts needed for the new new turbo.
I am feeling pretty deflated to say the least. The endless waiting, the emotional roller coaster, the frustration. I cant engage in anything, volunteer at a nature reserve, help on a project, I dont know how long I can commit to, when I might get the call.
If we had known it would be running into 3 or 4 weeks I could of even flown back out to Mick and Luna.
Till I get the call, I am eternally grateful to my mum and now my brother for offering a bed and Mick for looking after Luna. Nelly will get fixed eventually, it will pass, the dream will continue.

Reality, no filters!

Still waiting on news from Sarah’s van Nelly.
Saying that North West Spain ain’t too bad to sit it out.

Well to say it’s not going as well as we hoped is an understatement.

Mick catches the ferry to Spain and visits the beautiful mountain town of Potes before heading to Capbreton, France, to meet Sarah and Luna. But things quick...

Not the walk I wanted to be taking, but keeping spirits up with a morning wander. Exploring the hedgerows, listening to skylarks. Remembering to notice and appreciate the little things.
I will be back on the road with Mick and Luna soon. Hard not knowing when. Till then, enjoy the Sussex hedgerows too.
