21st June

21st June

The longest day, well it was for the gangs of kids who stayed up playing on the nearby playground until just before midnight. How the atmosphere changes on some Spanish sites at the weekend when loads of noisy Spanish families turn up. The ‘problem’ does seem more apparent when you get on the Mediterranean side of Spain. We were so tired we did get off to sleep ok but the gangs of kids tearing around on bikes continued throughout Saturday. I have written to the Spanish Medical Board suggesting they put Ritalin in school water supplies.
We got out early today and headed north of Roses to look at the coastline there. It was up and down hills and very hot. We shouldn’t have gone so far in the heat, clocking around 25 miles. We found some nice quiet bays but the off road sections were really too difficult even for mountain bikes.
Let’s just hope it’s a normal weekend and not one with another bank holiday Monday!
The world junior windsurfing championships were being held in Roses.

This was one of the easier sections of the trail north of Roses.
