Saturday 13 Oct
Moved the van this morning to take up a pitch overlooking the sea with a fine view over the estuary Walked into San Vicente de la Barquera about a mile. Lots of motorbike groups passing noisily through, using the very long bridge which straddles the wide estuary. We covered our ears. We walked up to the old quarter and witnessed a society wedding taking place in the church at the top of the hill , piped by a Cantabrian band complete with bagpipes, all very glamorous. Andy went body boarding in the afternoon, whilst I sat on the beach and watched a surfing lesson being given to a group of beginners in front of me and applauded them when they managed to stand up finally in the surf, albeit for a moment. We ate a welcome veg lasagna and shared an apple pie at a cafe near the campsite in the evening. Amazing views over the estuary at night!
