24 – 28 February 2019 Benicassim

Cycled down to Castellon with Linda and Ray and had coffee, then back to Benicassim for lunch. Monday had a day off exercise, our friends have now left for their journey back to the UK and we have taken over their LARGE pitch.

While wandering around the town after our early morning run along the beach we came across this wonderful distorted tree. See image below.

Another strange photograph below ‘el corb’ (The Raven) biting through a chain. This is located above a restaurant entrance in Benicassim.

Good journey up from Valencia. Site very busy when we arrived and unable to get a Gold pitch. The pitch we are on is OK and will be moving onto a Gold pitch on Monday. There seems to be a bit of discord on the site, people are not too happy, both staff and customers with lots of moaning going on.

Back to walking and running on the beach and cycling. Spending the last few days with our friends, Linda and Ray. Cycled up to Oropesa for coffee.

Above is a photo of some new bungalows on the site – they look pretty classy. A lot of older caravan and motorhome people tend to now fly down into Spain instead of driving down, and hire these bungalows for the winter so they can still keep in touch with their friends.
