Palencia to Cadiz via Caceres

The days in the saddle have been long but the ever improving weather and the fascinating landscapes have helped the kilometres go by. Note there is no mention of intellectual conversation.
We left Palencia and pointed Billy towards Caceres. Enroute we saw several of these big boys on hilltops
A shepherd drove his flock across the garage forecourt before I reached the pumps.
By the time we reached Caceres, we thought that it was time to enjoy the cafe culture scene. So we sat huddled in our jackets attempting to look “cool” at 7 in the evening, with a chilly breeze around our ears but the senior citizen in us soon sent us scuttling back to the warmth and comfort of the van and a hot water bottle!!
Today we have skirted Seville ( did the tourist trail there a few years ago), en route to Cadiz where we are now parked up.
Tomorrow, a boat ride across the estuary to explore the old town. 
So it’s comfortable shoes, cheese, baguette, water and camera, as we go in search of culture ....... and Sangria!!!!!
