Having driven so far, so fast, we are staying put a bit longer. This means I’ve less to report back so I might have to make the blogs every other day to not bore you with repetition. Nothing seems to happen before 10 or sometimes 11am. We forget that the Spanish are more nocturnal than …

232 – Studies and yoga with a view
With a fast approaching deadline for my coursework we decided to stay put and enjoy the views. Having taken the pups for their morning walk along the beach our suspicions were confirmed, everyone was english, we have stumbled into an English enclave. Still we can totally understand why they choose to winter here, the view …
230 – New Years on the beach!
N.B. for some reason it won’t let me attach photos so I will add them separately to FB. Waking in the mountains we soon discovered to our horror that we had run out of LPG and couldn’t make a cuppa! The nearest gas station was 35mins away at the coast so certainly not the end …
216 – Sun, Sea, Sand and 3 sleepy pups
The fire was almost out when we woke this morning, so we went out for a long walk back to Jaspers favourite beach. While the pups played in the surf and chewed sticks, Mark and I picked over the beautiful pebbles and quartz. Jasper was last off the beach and evidently didn’t want to leave, …
215 – Living the doggy dream and environmental costs
We woke to the smell of smoke so thick we could taste it. A quick glance outside and all along the shore farmers had fires burning, with thick plumes of smoke being swept towards the ocean. Definitely not ideal running conditions. We waited until mid morning by which time the fires were reducing, and took …

214 – The road less travelled
Last night, I felt so thankful. I might not have a clue what TV or celebrity gossip is doing the rounds, but why would I want that when I can be nestled up playing skipbo with snoring pups (wish Jasper had joined us on the bed to). We were up and organised fairly early and …
208 – Running for chocolate
It will as no surprise to anyone who knows me that I run predominantly so that I can eat more naughty stuff. The rather sad reality being how far you have to run to actually burn off a delicious slice of cake…but still it gets me out the door and all the other benefits come …
204 – Seaside Life Planning
Waking up to another rainy day, we decided to enjoy the stormy sea and stay put. The pups weren’t keen to wake up and I can happily lounge in bed with them waiting for a break in the weather, especially when I have a ton of coursework I’m expertly procrastinating over. Beach life When Jaspers …
176 – Doggy Olympics and an amphitheatre
We were all a little slow to rise this morning. I’d slept through my alarm and we were so cosy after a mega thunderstorm last night. Honestly the sound of the rain was so heavy it felt like golf balls hitting the roof, and the first claps of thunder made me think someone had crashed. …
Day 107 – Muckypups
Journey: Chlopy – Gaski – Trzebiatow – Szczecin It’s funny what a difference time can make. At 7am, I was jogging down round a quiet town and along a pristine beach. On my way back a few locals were picking up bread and pastries from the bakery and Chlopy had a completely different feel. That …
