Awaycation Summer 2024 - España

-

Now that we have a few Staycations planned for the fading end of 2023, my attention is turning to the longer summer trip to Spain.


Where to go?  I have several guidebooks from Rough Guides and Lonely Planet to sift through.  With the weather liable to be on the hot side of warm, I have to consider Reggie in all this.

We will arrive early morning in Bilbao and so there is a chance to move westwards.  I need to find out how moho-friendly Bilbao and surrounding area is going to be.  If you know. Please comment!

I have a vague plan to head across the north towards Santiago de Compostela and then loop back through the Picos.

Some of these might be in the plan.

Near Loch Ness So it was with a bit of trepidation that I picked the bike up from Ken Fulton, the SOC's magazine Editor (at the time), who had in turn ...
