29th April

Camped for the night in a one horse town called Santa Elena on the edge of the Despenaperros National Park.  Our quest for the evening was to find a bar with a TV to watch a semi final of the Champions League. We found a hospitable place with friendly locals; what ensued was a demolition fantastico result: Spain ecstatico, Germany not so happy.

We have finally arrived in our ideal climate, (de rigueur being shorts, sandals and tee shirt) time to relax and take the foot off the gas. We ventured into the National Park where roadside wild flora is in full display mode.
