Seville to La Florida


Day 77 Seville to the Olive groves
We left the site for a 2 hour drive up into the olive groves between Seville and Granada. We arrived at the Aire and decided to stop for a couple of hours, We went for a walk in to the village but as it was siesta everywhere was closed apart from a little bar so we stopped for a coffee, we also noticed a tapas menu so we decided to try a couple, we took a guess at what we were ordering as there was not a menu in English so we ordered”  Gambas pil pil” (Prawns in garlic oil) and “Patatas Bravas con Chorizo” (Potatoes with Chorizo sausage) each tapas was 1 euro. Then back to the van we decided to drive to Venta del Peral Aire which was another 2 hours, As we set off we drove through miles and miles of Olive groves up and down very bendy roads.When we arrived at the Aire we had to change the gas bottle however there was an issue with the new gas and we were not sure if it was the bottle or the regulator, luckily Derek managed to secure it for the night.
 

 
 

Day 78 Venta del Peral to Puntas del Calnegre
We set off back to Puntas del Calnegre  which was the beach we came across 3 weeks ago when we left the bungalow. When we arrived the beach was empty, Again we had to secure the regulator on the gas bottle as it seemed to be worse. After about an hour of messing about with it we managed to sort it out. Another Campervan joined us from Finland. Just the two of us stayed the night. About 7.00pm Derek lit the BBQ and we sat on the beach until the sun went down. We were going to stay for 2 nights.
 
 

Day 79 Puntas Del Negre to Home
The gas decided to play up again so we decided to just drive back to the bungalow and get it sorted when we got back home..This is where part one of 2 muppets in a motorhome stops until the 12th September when we start the tour back.
