Travel horror stories
Everyone we meet seems to be having similar experiences, but hopefully it will improve over time as people realise that borders aren’t going to close again, so working in the travel industry will be ok. Our experiences have at least been a bit varied. There were no queues at all when we left Valencia a couple of days ago, but unfortunately that seems to be the exception. Jump back in! It’s still great when you get here, and you guys certainly seem to get to some very interesting places. Fortunately most of Europe has now lifted most requirement for vax certificates, etc, but some countries still require masks - very strict on public transport in Spain, but that’s not really much of a hassle.

Spain
Yes, I dodged a bullet, and fortunately it all went away in a couple of days. We love Spain!

Engagement
Many thx. I’ll pass on your congrats!

Not as cute as the bear
Thx for reading. Yes, we were indeed lucky to get anything at all, so probably shouldn’t complain too much …. And it gives us something to write about. Hope you guys are surviving winter!

Sheep
Thanks for yet more evidence in support of the sheep theory. I think it really is a thing. And as for Mad Vlad Putin, what is it with him and guys of his ilk, and how do those sort of guys always manage to end up in power. Aarrgghh.

San Sebastian
We ended up absolutely loving it too, but it did take us a day or so to get over the long flight and all the airport craziness. Issy says it’s her new favourite place in Spain, just ahead of Granada and Barcelona!
