We’ve crossed the Pyrenees and made it back into Northern Spain but still we are battered by rain all day, every day!
Our road trip adventure is not currently going to plan as we just can’t get out and enjoy everything around us due to the continuous bad weather. We’re heading along the northern coast of Spain towards the Pico’s de Europa National Park, but what we will find when we get there? If the weather is still this bad it will not be the experience, we’re hoping for…
On route, we stop at Embalse de Yesa Reservoir for a totally wild park up night and head to the bright lights of the city of Pamplona where we wonder where everyone is hiding? The streets seem to be so quiet for a Saturday afternoon.
As we move on, we get to visit the island of Gaztelugatxe, a site that was used on one of our favourite TV programs (Game of Thrones). The island does not disappoint and for once we even see the sun just at the right moment. It makes for some great footage and so we quickly get the drone up from a safe distance where we were advised we could fly.
The next evening Koa seems to be dreaming and we wake up in a fairytale land at Butron Castle. Unfortunately, you are no longer allowed to visit inside the castle but again we got some great video from outside and with the drone.
Our next overnight park up and our 2nd date night is in the surf town of Somo with spectacular beaches and waves. Koa 100% loves our time on the beach and playing a few games along the way with sticks and balls. I did not enjoy cleaning up all the sand afterwards however ;( Koa even took a cheeky drink of my beer when I wasn’t watching - managed to catch it on camera though so stay tuned for his mischievousness.
Ultimately, we land in the Pico’s de Europa National Park, the medieval town of Potes, and that’s where we decided to end this video diary so we can save a whole chunk for next time. We do however bump in to some wild dogs of 2 different kinds and Koa sets out to defend his lair.
Thank you in advance for watching, and we hope you enjoy our attempt at bringing our adventures into your home.
Rich & Koa.
