Since VSO in Namibia we've been in Galashiels and returned to Dorset in 2007. We have been travelling in Europe and India in 2008-9, New Zealand in 2009-10 and Spain in the winters of 2011-12. Alan's walked the Pyrenees, the SW Coastal Way and we've both managed the Devon C to C cycle ride, Hadrian's Way, Velodyssey and walked the Fish River Canyon and Great Glen Way. What's next?. We've now moved to Dartington in Devon to downsize & be closer to family....read on..

This is a view of the harbour at Cadaques on route to the most easterly point of Spain, Cap Creus (where the Gr11 ends). We spent a week in the Cost Brava starting on Roses and a few days in Empuriabrava and ending with a night in Girona before flying out to Newcastle. The weather was a little mixed with a days rain but otherwise it was fine with some hot days. We had opportunities to get into the pyrenees and also spend a few days at the coast and the nature reserve near Empuriabrava (Park Natural dels Aiguamolls) where we saw Egrets and White Storks nesting near the water, and a bee eater! The area was busy being the peak season with lots of French and other European tourists. However, a few kilometres out and away from the coast, the roads were very quiet. We visited Olot and had a brief visit into France, and I got a brief view of Mt. Carnou in the eastern pyrenees.
