Hi guys,
well it is a trifle warm here. We have been travelling about 75 to 130km per day frm Bilao in Northern Spain around the Picos de Europa.
Today we have headed to Santa Domingo and are staying in a Paradore, an old 16th century monastry. Mamma Diffen is coping well. We were wa out on the rough back roads today, between Aguila and where we are today.
Scenery is fantastico. It des get a little warm in the arvo, and thats why they invented super cold beer.
We will head up in towards the Pyrenees shortly, but we are basially travelling in Northern Spain nowheresvile and internet acccess is a bit scratch. Leonard will add the pictures a bit later.
One is in the Picos de Europa above Potes. Ther other was taken today outside a 200AD Roman town wih Castillio up on the mountain. It was taken on a back road out beyond the black stump.

Car was running a bit hot on the way up the mountains so I had to back off the timing and it is not hissing and spitting now. Otherwise it is performin like a good 1937 Studebaker Dictaor should and seriously stopping traffic and pedestrians who just climb all over it. There is no point caring to much about the car when you are out. Chances are it is the most pictured car in Spain at the moment.
