Cadaques

7th December

Saddle bag 20C HoT

Really cold when we woke up but quickly warmed up to a really hot day. I take back what i said about the site here. The showers are good and the wash block very clean. First up today was to sort out jC 's ankle. The problem about going anywhere is that we have to take our home with us. But as we only have the electric hook up ( technical term for those virgin campers!, and actually one that I have only just learnt myself), we were away quickly to the Orthapaedic shop by the bus station, where I dropped Jc and parked up elsewhere to take the dogs for a walk.

Job done. He has a sort of ankle brace that fits inside his shoe and tonight we reckon there is an improvement already.

Away to Cadaques for lunch in one of the little restaurants on the front of this quaint and famous fishing village. Made famous by Salvador Dali who spent much of his time painting here. Unfortunately, sprained ankle people who drive camping cars are exempt from getting to see his house as it is too far to walk and every road approaching it has a big round sign with a pic of a camping car on it and a red circle around it. So we just had the lunch which was very good. Tiger prawn, Razor fish, bocqerones, and tortilla.

I found out today that our Big boy free sat dome is only set up to work as far south as Barcelona, but there are dodgy areas too, and we are in one of them. So no soaps tonight and it seems my tv watching days are numbered. Jc is vey happy without it though. We don't really know what is going on in England but we know it is not good news!
