Sol Piramide Salou Hotel Reus

... Turned out the café was the choice of the locals as they all started piling in once we got our meal and it was full by the time we left. Good choice! Back in Cambrills the wind was still howling so much so it was making Val's eyes water. Another afternoon in Scooby reading our books. Tomorrow we are heading south to outrun the wind!

The plan was to go to a little village on the outskirts of Tarragona - Altafulla but it didn't really tickle our fancy and nothing open so went a bit further south to Cambrills. On arrival I noticed that there were some waves off the beach which were probably surfable. As we drove further along the beach the waves got bigger and then I saw a few guys out there surfing. Excellent!!! I pulled over and said I was going in and the girls would have to occupy themselves ...

Départ de la plage vers 9h avec comme but de rejoindre ce soir le Delta de l'Ebra, une réserve naturelle au bord de la mer. J'ai environ 80km à faire. Je suis une route de bord de mer pour éviter l'autoroute, mais elle me fait faire beaucoup plus de kils que prévu.. je suis dans un cul-de-sac, je dois remonter vers les montagnes pour retrouver une route... je traverse des champs d'olivier, c'est ...

je quitte Premia de Mar, Alain et Isra, ils ont été adorables avec moi. Je traverse Barcelone en train et décide à rester dans le train jusqu'au bout de la ligne, ce sera toujours ca de gagné!! Je roule quelques heures (étant donné que je suis partie à midi de Premia, le soir arrive vite) avant d'arriver devant un camping. J'hésite... il est 18h30, la nuit ...

... einen Freiwasseraufstieg machen mussten. Nach dem Deco-Stop hatte ich 0 bar in der Flasche, es hat noch knapp gereicht, um das Jacket aufzublasen, sonst wäre der relative lange Rückweg an der Oberfläche sehr muehsam geworden......

In der regionalen Presse bin ich auch schon vertreten, da ich an einer Simultanschach-Veranstaltung gegen den katalanischen Meister (über 2400 Elo-Punkte) gespielt hatte, und am laengsten von 12 Teilnehmern durchgehalten hatte.

Wie immer fiel unser Urlaub in die hohen Festtage von "Sant Magi", mit Menschentürmen, Festlichkeiten überall, mitternächtlichen Parties und vielem mehr.

Schön gekocht, Essen gegangen, unter anderem natürlich im Dorado, eine wunderbare Seezunge. Nur der Spielsaal, in dem Johannes und Stefan früher ihr Taschengeld verzockt hatten, war nicht mehr da, das findet jetzt wohl alles zu Hause am Computer statt.

Es geht uns wieder prächtig!

Waking up by rolling a few meters on the sand into the sea is fun (not as fun as shirt ball though). After leaving town we realised there was road works on the road we needed to be on. It was begining to seem like there would have to be a massive detour but by skillfully pointing at my bike and the road many times until the workers let us go down it; despite massive diggers swinging about. Spanish ...

We woke up with ALL of our stuff after having a hassle free night. Well, apart from the surronding gays and tractors. We spent a majority of the day chilling on the beach playing kick the bean bag and a new game called shirt ball.

Me and Alex invented shirt ball as a way of cleaning our t-shirts in the sea without getting bored. The rules are simple, you basically tie a tshirt up in to a small ball and throw it at each other as ...

... because it´s solid as a tank and drives like a bus), would make the retired Leyland workers who built him very proud.......! Minivan life is a routine we are getting into, but as we´ve already discovered I´m really a city person as wild camping in a pitch dark national park FREAKED ME OUT!! Marja is still laughing about that night. If there´s no photos we didn´t manage to upload them, but will try again soon .

Well after spending three weeks in a hostel, I've finally moved into my new flat. I share this flat with the land lady and another guy. Neither of them speak English. The city of Reus is not that big. I can walk around the whole city in a couple of hours. It feels like the size of Oak Bay. The weather has been really nice. Always in the high teens or low twenties. At night 10C. Some people say its cold out when its like 15C and I'm ...
