We have been planning a trip to the Isle of Ireland however, it has been afflicted by the pandemic since 2019, but all blog things come to pass eventually!
We were very close to the Sierra de Grazelema an area of outstanding natural beauty
We are ensconced in a most delightful campsite in the Sierra Nevada, high in the hills with mountain views, above Granada.
Until very recent times the Spanish civil war was a subject very rarely talked about in Spain
Once we had climbed via the Somport tunnel through the Pyrenees into the land of warmth and sunshine we started our exploration of Aragon
It is said that the South West Coast Path is perhaps the UK’s most challenging long distance path –
Our destination is Bourg St Pierre, Switzerland where Wend has booked a trekking holiday called ‘Secret Switzerland: Tours des Combins’.
Well, having had further Lockdown restrictions imposed while in Morpeth and before we get locked up , we decided to escape across country.
Hartlepool , The Way of Love and The Way of the Sea.
Norfolk, The Broads…and more Sweetcorn.
Of course, it wasn’t what we had ideally planned. Nothing ever is these days, is it?
Having booked our ferry to Ireland for 31st August we didn’t fancy the two week quarantine on arrival, and with a second thought trip to Germany already abandoned and no chance of watching Le Grand Depart of Le Tour de France in Nice which was probably our dream first choice, we decided on a tour of England.
