Costa Norte

I'm way behind on the blog and feeling a bit lazy about doing my typical long winded write-up so I'm jut going to post some photos to bring it up to current (almost).

After Luarca, I continued along the coast with a quick detour to Cudillero, another picturesque port town. Lots of tourist eating on one of the many cafés.


And it was market day so there were all kinds of interesting things on offer.



Another further detour brought me to the lookout Espiritu de Santo where you could see the rugged coast line for miles each way...


"Camping" on the Spanish coast is very different than camping as I'm used to it. No solitude at all and time-share like mobile homes filled with overweight, beer drinking weekend warriors. Felt more like a trailer parking than camping...


Santander was a pretty cool coastal city you don't hear too much about. This dude below took his idea of camping a little too far...


When you get outside the city, it doesn't take long to be back in cow country...


Chilling in the woods that bordered one of the beaches I camped at. Traveling solo you get pretty shameless with the 10 second timer mode on the camera...


This part of Europe has major tidal swings. What is a port at noon, is totally dry at sunset...
