Asturias, Spain

2/24 - Asturias - Thursday was a long day. Renee woke up in the middle of the night, too excited to sleep. By 2:00am we were both awake. It was sort of convenient since we had to wake at 4:30am anyway so we could eat breakfast, and catch our flight to Asturias Spain. The flight was un-eventful. With Easyjet you get what you pay for. You get your flight, but drinks, courtesy, and customer service are extra.

Descending to Spain it was a nice clear day. Asturias is beautiful. Lots of sun, very green, and nice and warm. At ~50+F it feels like late Spring.

From the Airport we took a Bus to Oviedo, and confusion ensued. 8 Hours later we were on a bus to Arriondas. At Arriondas, Spain we stopped at a Cafe. In my broken Spanish, I asked for 2 black teas. We got a black coffee, and a Nestea. I tried.

  2. Trust me to do something wrong. I posted a comment last night and I don't see it. So here I will try again.
    Your blog is wonderful. I look at it first thing in the morning and last thing when I go to bed. I know, of course, that you are not going to be adding anything every day maybe not every week, but in the meantime I am loving it. It all sounds so great. Have you practiced your Dutch, Ney? Enjoy, have fun.
    Hugs,
    Oma
