| The Intrepid Travellers |
A perfectly relaxed day enjoying kicking back with very
pleasant warm temperatures and a light breeze.
Yesterday we spotted an amazing Mercedes Off-Road motorhome
park up on the marina, and when we went for a walk this morning we got talking
to the guys in it, both from Germany. The base vehicle was purchased from the German
military and Marcus had the body custom made. It really is impressive. Marcus currently
has his friend Malte travelling with him. He started this journey in April with
a shakedown trip to the North Cap in Norway and tomorrow they are heading
across to Morocco for the start of his African journey. Marcus has plans of
travelling for the next 6 years and will have friends join him for sections of
the journey. He may even end up in New Zealand! He is travelling with his 6
month old Vissler puppy, Rieta, what a life for her.
This afternoon we walked into La Linea with directions for
the heart of the town, a real Spanish area full of tapa bars. It was
fascinating, with families out wandering the streets and sitting under
umbrellas and enjoying the food and drinks. The little narrow lanes were car
free and just endless bars. There were so many to choose from, so it was a “pig
in a poke”, but made a good choice. Had some good tapas including calamari,
octopus and beef cheeks. Love being able to try small dishes of different food.
And of course, a few cold ones. We sat for ages just enjoying watching the busy
crowds, really relaxing.
Back to the motorhome and relaxing with a good book, what
could be better.

| A band was setting up in the side streets. |

| ...and by the amount of spirits it was going to be a big party! |

Not sure what was going down, but surprised to
see the policeman smoking! |
