Well,we were very close to Algeciras and on track to get a ferry to Morocco but we badly broke down on Friday night. There's some very nasty engine knocking. If the car can even be fixed then we wont find out until Monday. Until then we're stranded in the scummy town of Aguiras on the Spanish coast with nothing to do but get sunburn and play chess. Spirits are low.

We're a bit further south than Valencia,just past Alicante. No one told us Spain was this big! Powering through to Algeciras though so we can meet people to convoy in Africa with. We have to wait for them to text us though because Matt dropped his phone down a toilet in Germany and lost lots of numbers! Weather report: hot hot hot!@

So some late night driving on the cards. Roll on spain. @

Panda survived a trip through the beautiful alps. Still a little behind schedule due to the Prague fiasco so carrying on to France tonight. Looking forward to coastal driving and fine french cuisine (i.e. Super Noodles at the road side.)@

Chilling in Luxembourg at the moment. It's an absolutely beautiful city. The sun is shining and there's a crazy golf tournament going on! What a place!
