Sorry about your camera, but certainly not your fault with all those cobbles shaking the bejesus out of it.
5 years agoGreat pics, Rachael. No need for captions, good pictures speak for themselves.
5 years agoI was happy when I saw what the situation was. A minute later a man walked out of the school and in his direction with a wry grin on his face. Not the first time, I assume.
5 years agoLove this photo! I'll bet this guy keeps his parents and teachers on their toes.
5 years agoAck! That’s so interesting! Thanks so much. I’m glad I asked.

Yup. If we could have rounded up seven more CycleBlazers we could have had a BBQ and gone for a record.
5 years agoAn historic photo!
5 years agoIsn’t that something? It’s the GPS that really perplexes us. We don’t have a clue on that one. We’re doing fine though. Rachael found a good coat for an amazing 8 euros. I have an extra camera anyway; and we found a handlebar mount for my cell phone for 10 euros, so we’re functional and not out much in the short run. And, we are both doing passable today and had a great loop ride out of Ponferrada. So we’re fine - I’m just a whiner.

5 years agoSorry about the GPS, camera, and rain jacket!
But so great that the end-point hotel came through and offered to reimburse the shipping charges.
Hope Rachael's sore throat does not turn into a cold .. here's to better days ahead!
Sounds like we found a less interesting hotel than you did, but it had its good side. Clean, quiet, no noisy drunks.

Aggravating alright, but that’s why I carry two cameras now. And I’m sure you’re right - blame it on the cobblestones.
