It's raining, I'm leaving Poo - 22nd July

Bar Agera in Llanes is a good place to write up this blog, particularly with a few glasses of Rioja to oil the process.

I leave after lunch as the weather clears. I have Bilbao in my sights but pull off the motorway to take a look at Comillas where I eat a good salad, I've not done that all the time I've been away, so a nice change.

I love these big old houses overlooking the bay with stone walls and iron gates. It starts raining again so it's back to the highway and non stop to Bilbao. Negotiating my way through the spagetti roads around Bilbao I think I'vwe found the correct right filter to take me to the top of the hill overlooking the city. But what's that, a bunch of VW yelling enthusiasts blocking my exit and forcing me back towards Santander. It takes me another hour to find my way back to the slip road and up to the van park. Nothing for it but to sleep on the back seat, it's still raining and late.
