First sight of Spain in the distances.

After a 26 hour flat calm crossing I ended up in a rather strange hotel in Santander, whilst walking around I expected shaggy and Scooby Doo to come running around a corner at any moment.

After an interesting night I headed east towards Torla where I camped for a couple of nights, but on the way I had a little play around this lake

Torla campsite, a stunning place near Odessa national park. A place I must return to

The next day I was off on a little trip over a Coll or two, so I headed out of the campsite and up the valley you can see in the distance

Some views on the French side
