Made decision to stay here until the New Year. Started to look at activities taking place within the campsite so its Line Dancing, swimming and keep fit for Sarah, and beer drinking for Rob. Met some new chums, Gary and Bren, they made a snap decision two months ago, sold their flat, bought a car and caravan and did exactly what we are doing, although it took us four years to get to the same place.

La Manga & Calblanque Home for Winter
Saturday 24th October 2009
This looks like being home for the rest of the winter!!!!
Cap Prim Xabia
Our next stop was Xabia, took a walk down to the old and new harbour on the first afternoon and saw a trawler bringing in his catch. Watched it unloaded and auctioned off by the quayside. The next day we walked to Cap Prim and then down to beach at Cala de la Barraca o del Portitxol. What a great setting a must for a revisit to the whole area. Campsite a little tight but manageable near front of site.
Peniscola
Tuesday 20th October 2009
Continued our journey to Peniscola to a Camper park in the town. Walked into town in which was the castle used in the film El Cid. Lovely old town.

Les Casteillets
Wednesday 14th October 2009
Carried on south to a site we stayed at in 2005 at St Jean Plat de Cort near Perpignan.Les Casteillets. Valerie and Jean Claude the Patrons. Had lazy day in hot sun. 27 degrees
Thursday 15th October 2009
Took scooter into Spain via mountain pass, very windy and so was I, it blew us all over the place. Cold in only a fleece. Sun still hot but wind made it seem very cold.Moving further south tomorrow. Had news that in Fussen where we were a week ago in 27 degrees, they had snow and minus 9 degrees last night, how quickly it can change. Glad we are not still there.
St Pierre Plage Narbonne
Monday 12th October 2009
Carried on further down the coast wanting to stay at Leucante, but when we got there we found that the off road parking had been updated and height barriers put up so nowhere for us to stop. Ended up at an Aire St Pierre just outside of Narbonne, brilliant stop on the edge of a Sailing School next to the sea. 3 euros a night.

Onward through Austria
Friday 9th October 2009
Carried on our journey south to La Spezia, weather a little rainy but the Ligurian hilltop villages look worthy of visiting. Found a campsite Camping Valdeiva just outside Deiva Marina south of La Spezia. Will return to do Cinque Terre walk at later date. Campsite not very special but had Wi Fi and free bus to village train station.

Tegleberg walk
Wednesday 7th October 2009
Cycled to the cable car to take us up to Tegelberg. Walked around the mountains and back down to Neuschwanstein, wonderful walk, with plenty of walking opportunities for walking in the future. The weather was wonderful and by the time we got back the day was so hot I went for a swim in the lake, Rob declined.
