The Flight of the Snowbirds
... my shirt front. I felt a right fool as we walked home. Fortunately I am married to an excellent washing machine, who soon had it sorted.
One day we decided to drive round the lake. In the next village they were having their annual wild boar festival, and there was a huge marquee of people scoffing, presumably, wild boar. Sadly all parking spaces were gone so we drove on. A little further up the lakeside there was a sign to the Pyramids ...
¿Are we in Rome? ¡No, Just Tarragona!
¡Buenos! So we only spent one night and one day in Tarragona, but it was as if we had been transported thousands of years into the past. After we FINALLY managed to find the hotel, we spent the next day walking through the old city which is chock full of old Roman architecture. Some highlights: a defensive tower, the entire city wall, and an small colliseum. We also saw an ...

Amongst the events planned for tonight was ...
Santa Tecla
After leaving Northampton just before 07:30 it took about 1 hour 50 minutes to get to the airport, including parking. The Easyjet flight from Luton to Barcelona departed and arrived on time and we were soon out of the airport and heading for the train. There had been recent heavy rain, so it was a bit humid, but the weather was now dry but overcast.
