Left guardamar early to cash points and hit the mountains and scenery stunning

Temp,climbing to 20 degs we made good progress and stopped for coffee break at caravaca

Dishing up crispy €50 euro notes to the kitty

Truck stop,with nice lady serving helped by uncle festa who spoke English

Police also at stop,having coffee break

Left but rejoined carriageway eastwards so had to double back to continue west on climbing upto 1000 metres upwards Neil,and I saw flashing cars headlights and slowed but GOode missed this and was hauled in by West Murcia cops and relived of the kitty €150

Lucky no exhaust or helmet checks may have seen him introduced to the Spanish inquisition

Team agreed to fund the fine and now face with gruel for dinner to night as budget for dinner depleted.

Lunch in Andulusia just across the border we had sandwiches which made us tired and had another stop, and storms clouds building DC took one for team putting his water proofs on as this normally prevents rain, however all stopped fall slashes of lightening in the distance

Temps dropped from 23 to 3 degs and we hit hailstones so took cover in underpass with local bikers heading to Spanish GP

Onwards we hit Granada hotel and found ourselves in a super Friday celebration fiesta odd the cross, kids dressed up,little girls in flamenco dress

Hit few bars and had green beans for tapas

Seville next
