Monday 29th November 2010

The rain has returned, so no bike ride today. We logged onto the internet to check the weather and it’s not great for a couple of days, more rain is forecast. Whilst on a weather website, I thought I check the forecast for Granada, where we planned to head next to see the Alhambra. There was less rain and the weather looked better later in the week, but we noticed the temperatures are low, around 2 today, going to -2 during the day later in the week and -5 at night! Lynn pointed out this was a little chilly and maybe it would be a better idea to visit it on our way back. In other words “You must be mad if you think I’m going there with those temperatures!” So out came the maps and a quick rethink on our route. We decided to stick to the coast where it’s warmer and found a campsite just over halfway between here and Malaga called “Don Cactus” (I kid you not). We’ll then head for Malaga and the campsite where we are leaving the van. This the girls informed me was a good idea as we had lots to sort out before we fly home. There am I, thinking it was just a matter of throwing a few (Warm) clothes in a bag and jumping on a plane! Silly me!

Sarah has just seen on the internet that you’re due snow and it could be -7 during the night! Will it be a white xmas? Will Priory close due to snow?

  2. Yes, Priory did close due to snow!! Only 6 staff got there on Wednesday, so Rachael had no option, really, and kept it shut for today! I've now dug out the long-sleeved thermals!! This is serious!! Love Chris B
