As predicted, Tuesday dawned miserably – cloudy, rainy & cold…
Driving out of town past all the sights we’d done on the sightseeing buses in the previous days looked SO different when NOT bathed in sunshine… 😎
We popped Cáceres into the SatNav and – after “wild camping” outside Córdoba Zoo for a couple of nights, Dave had earmarked a “proper” campsite ⛺️ rather than an aire – Camping Cáceres.
We’d polished off the rest of the (excellent) Spanish omelette that I’d made the previous night – en-route – so needed to bib into a massive Carrefour hypermarket to pick up supplies…
The campsite was great – another ACSI “special” – it should have been €50 for 2 nights but with our ACSI card, it reduced to €38 including all services. There was a little restaurant-bar on site, a small supermarket & a couple of pools (which I’m sure are fab in the summer but not now 🥶).
And we’ve never seen this setup before but EACH pitch had it’s OWN bathroom with shower & toilet !!! And it’s own little table & chairs…
This very friendly French couple were behind us but Dave ended up chatting to Alan & Jean from Lancashire 🙄 whilst he was plugging in the leccy, etc. And we were surrounded by British, Irish & Scottish peeps & vans….
I’d googled my usual “Top 10 Things…” and made the executive decision that – as it was still pretty grotty weather & Spain is always “Cerrada” (closed) in the afternoon that we we start our late afternoon of culture later on…
So – we got the kettle on, tucked into these MASSIVE muffins we’d just picked up at Carrefour & retrieved (for the first time since receiving our gift back in May from our good friends Mark & Julie) RUMMIKUB !!! (Or “Tile Rummy” as it’s also known)
It’s SO addictive (and I kept whooping Dave 🏆- it’s nice to be good at something for a change !!!). See photie of one of my winning boards !!!
