Awesome thunder show last night – forks of pink lightening straight across the sky in front and above us followed by loads of loud rumbling all around us. We had to get up again at 2am to close the pop top, because the wind was shaking the van so much.
We got up today to slightly brighter weather, although still no sun and can no longer see the mountains through the mist. Staying on another night here as we have grown to like the view and the serenity. Saw a black redstart here yesterday and had another go with my macro lens practising on a poor snail that really didn’t want to be photographed in the bright light of day.
Ant had a quick check in the engine bay (looking for a distributor number to find out the timing settings I think) but also noticed that the accelerator cable was rubbing on some piping and wearing it away, so he improvised a shield with our empty bean can and some cable ties, will check it again after a bit of driving tomorrow. We are hoping to find somewhere with a tumble dryer and internet access tomorrow so we can stop a few more nights in France before we cross over. Need to brush up on my Spanish!
