Saturday 5^th July

Tonight will be our 3^rd night at the superb Camping Gavin. However today we decided to book the ferry from Le Havre to Portsmouth for next Saturday. It was a good price at £92 and means I don’t have to drive around Paris or the M25 around London.

Yesterday we walked into Biescas a round trip of just over an hour. It was a tidy town with lots of busy bars but few supermarkets. After our Canyon walk we’ve been trying to recover but we seem to be having to do something. I did a 20 length swim in the pool and then …once again we watched the footy and had the 3 course 15 euro meal (includes a decent bottle of wine). Today was really hot and we set off on our bikes heading nowhere in particular but still a really enjoyable ride of around 16 miles. Later we walked up the road to Gavin, again a tidy, clean and neat town. We’ve picked out some nice looking sites to stop at and look forward to stopping at a different one each day, resting and maybe cooling off in pools or lakes.

Camping Gavin, terraced pitches, nice pool and good restaurant.

The little town of Gavin. In this area there are lots of pretty villages and lots of safe cycle tracks to visit them from.
