Day 14

Rate this post

Wake-up was at 8:45 am. Around 9 I had breakfast and went to the bank to sort out the ATM issues from yesterday – in van as the bank said they can’t do a thing about it so I should try again. I did as they told and as a result my account was debited with 100 EUR but the ATM did not give me the amount. After spending an hour with them I called my bank and sorted it out with them.

I wasn’t in a good mood and had little cash when I left for Sevilla. The trip was short and the weather was again on my side. 
After lunch in Sevilla I headed towards Marbella through Ronda (routes A-375, A-374 and A-397). The road from Ronda to Marbella was recommended by Hispania Tours in Malaga and it was really worth it. It was a beautiful ride and a great road. My computer showed again 36 degrees so I was happy to take a rest once in Marbella. I found a hotel and the first thing was a well deserved shower before sorting my stuff out before heading towards home tomorrow..

    Day 12

    I set off from Cadiz at 10.00 and took coffee on the way out of the city in the shade of trees in a cafe. I took the motorway to Sevilla and had lunch there. I should have stayed there to explore but decided to push it further. It was already 30 degrees in Seville…

    Today morning was surprisingly chilly. I mean by the standards I got used to in the last couple of days and obviously not the home standards where temperatures are still below zero during the night at this period of the year. It was 11.5 degrees and the air was rather humid.I couldn’t leave before 8.00…

  • Day 15

    Today I woke up quite late for my standards and had a headache from the drinks I had yesterday. I spent some time to clean and pack my gear. I left Marbella to head North through Madrid. On the way I stopped in Malaga at the airport Starbucks and had a great coffee. I took the motorway to eat up…

  • Day 9

    Today I woke up at 8.00 🙂 I did some washing and headed down for breakfast which I took on the terrace of the hotel. It was just perfect. The best I had in days. I then went for a short ride around Marbella and gave a good wash to the bike as it really…

  • Day 6

    Today I left Valencia around 9.00 and headed inland towards Albacete. The road was wonderful. Small roads alongside riverbeds but I had to pay attention as in some places rocks were blocking part of the road. At one time I crossed a plane stretching for miles where the land was so flat one could not…

  • Day 8

    Today I woke at 4.00 am! I just couldn’t sleep despite the fact that there was complete silence around the whole campsite. I just watched a movie in my tent. When the battery started to sun down I moved to the bathroom area and plugged it in then watched another one. In the meantime I…
