Spain/Portugal where are you?

Ah, its election week.
The only thing real about the aire is that it's a politician's promise. Fed to the local press .
The picture of the proposed site, is a photoshopped mock up.
The Mayor, if re- elected, will probably go ahead.
His family are in the construction business.
More later.
 
Moved to La Azohia nice spot on our own next to the supermarket. Well out of the way of locals using the car park we hope. Even found a small chunk of concrete just enough to lift the front wheel so nice and level. Nice to get away from the campsite and get some cool sea breeze.

Iampatman .. Sorry missed your post .. Had a walk round the site and only found a Luna Caravan you must have been well hidden in plain view ..

What around you all up to?
31•c in the shade, gorgeous gentle SE breeze.
Any form of work has to be completed before 10.
It'll do.

We're flying back for 3 nights, 31 October, for follow up checks at the Eye hospital...
Just in case. That'll do, thanks.
Are you gracing The Algarve with your presence again,this winter?
 
Another day another Euro .
It's cooling down, here.

16 degrees before sun-up. 30 in the shade, midday.
A very pleasant 19 now.

Everything baked dry,in the garden, but no reason to ro turn down a G&T on the terrace.
Goodnight,wherever you are.
 
Currently at Aziba barragem. Gorgeous views. No services and 3 of us here. One Brit left yesterday 2 Dutch now Left. Any other gems close by. No bars open close by. Closed for the winter but 28c lake warm. Lovely.:eek: I'd put a pic if I knew how.

Since there are bars there I assume that you are on the North side, if you drive through Macedo de Cavaleiros and head to the South side (by the dam itself) you'll find a couple of quiet wilding spots, we did a three centre on Azibo this Spring!
 
Heading south for a couple of weeks tomorrow from our house in Penamacor.
Possible route is Povoa, Elvas, Badajoz, through a bit of spain then Mina de sao Domingo & Amiexial to meet a mate.
Anybody at any of these aires / stops?
Any nice areas on the route for a stopover?

Hi Keith and Jane, sorry didn't see this! We are not the best people to ask about travelling down through France we have only done it once having chosen to take the ferry to Bilbao. Hope you sorted yourselves out and are having a good trip.

Nice part of the world, I intended to explore more last winter, but I camped up in Tarifa with the intent to freshen up for a few days, ended up staying at Galeria – Camping Rio Jara for 3 months.

Nice site nice people and nice atmosphere.

Goodness knows how I ended up staying for so long but there is a strong correlation to high quality, good value, organic ganjah.

If you're coming our way, bring some wet weather with you please.
But not the cold windy kind.

There are some bad influences gathering in Seville.

They're up to no good. Be very very careful.:goodluck:
