Backblip 21st January: Brrr!

Catchup time again. One week ago, on the campsite near Maria. We woke to a very frosty site/sight indeed. There was ice on the inside of the windows as well as the outside. With both high winds and snow forecast, it was very much time for us to leave.

Thankfully the sun broke through, unlike the gloom of the previous day, and things soon warmed up. Just as well, as the demister fan was still broken.

Very scenic drive down to Pinoso, where was stopped for two nights on a site called El Tranquillo. Amazing views and a Michelin Recommended restaurant in the village but, alas, as ever is the case for us, closed for holidays. No matter said The Driver, at our next stop there is a recommended Fish Restaurant, we shall eat out there. He booked a table forthwith.

Nice and sunny but with cool breeze when we arrived at El Tranquillo. We walked the dog and I gazed slack-jawed at the panorama, looking forward to taking the camera with us the next day... which dawned bitterly cold and with strong winds. Walking the dog was a matter of heads, down, quick march - and no time for cameras. In fact it was the first day this winter when I had to don hat, scarf and gloves in order to go out!

No Blip for the 20th. This shot is of the icy window when we got up.
No shot for the 22nd.
