Cycling and walking today! Warm sunshine again - we cycled as far as the entrance to the National Park and then walked up the track to the top. Lovely views and no-one in sight!

We've been out cycling today - again in gorgeous sunshine! We cycled as far as we could on the tarmac road then, at the entrance to the National Park, the track was a bit stoney so we sat and ate our lunch and read our books.

Just walked along the beach again today - the weather was a bit different to start with and the sea, which has been really calm, was a little bit rough! Heard from K&D in York - all ok with them - they haven't been affected by the flooding.

We went for a bike ride today - very nice but I got a puncture which took Fraser ages to fix but he did it!! Still a lovely day!

Walked along the beach today and had a lovely lunch at a sea-front restaurant - a fishy lunch!!

We're now in Peniscola - a typical Spanish sea-side resort! It's been dull since we arrived and not too warm either but the campsite is great - right next to the beach. We've spent a couple of hours walking along the sea-front and Fraser spotted these parrots.

We've had a lovely day - walked up to Morella and had a really nice lunch there. We couldn't walk up to the castle as they're doing lots of renovation work and the route was cordoned off.
Monday, 21 December 2015
We've arrived in Morella - a village in the mountains. We went from a desolate bleak landscape to lovely sunshine and interesting views. Morella is lovely!

Fraser and I walked up the dale to the viaduct and then up the road and along the track at Newby Head and over to Arten Gill. It was a lovely walk but very windy - hard to keep the camera still!!

It rained all night and we had torrential rain all day today. We decided to drive to Penrith to do some shopping - the roads out of Cowgill were really flooded so we came home via Kirkby Lonsdale. It's still raining!!!

It didn't stop raining all day today! Spoke to Mo this evening - lovely to catch up with her. She has been to Rome and her and Martyn have been to Northern Cyprus. Kate and Dennis are here - Kate gave me lots of apples so I've got them all cooked and some put away in the freezer.

A wet day today but not cold. I had a baking day - I made spicey lentil soup, cheese scones, kale and mushroom lasagne and a banana cake!! I also finished my first Astrid Hat - it turned out a bit big but I'm pleased with it!

Met up with Anne and we went to Lancaster. Visited Standfast and Fabrix! Lovely afternoon but didn't make it to knitting. Finished Hat No. 1 (Horse Beanie).
