A long drive today from Comillas to Santiago de Compostela via lots of the North coast, it all looks worth further investigation especially by boat.
I get some funny looks from the locals but I suppose a geriatric Englishman turning up in shorts and T shirt asking for an octopus butty and a Coke Zero in Spanglish is not what the locals are used to, it gets the conversation going though.
Having driven to or through a few large towns today and arriving at Santiago tonight it has made up my mind to steer well clear so it is only small towns and villages for me from now on, mind you I still want to pop in and have a look at Porto and Lisbon.
More when I recover.
Hey Bobbins fluent in the Spanglish already .... Good lad !!
