After checking in at the Mudayyan hotel, we enjoyed gazing up at our hero, Black Bull, just our size, in the Plaza Torico. Unable to climb up to it, we had to be |

content with posing at its base! Then we had a tour of the Lovers' Mausoleum, with its church, parapets and cloister |

 |
 |
| Dinner near the Reina Cristina, a Michelin lunch at Yains, and, tummies full, just a glass of cider for supper in the Irish pub, U2 Temple |

.

 |
 |
Detoured to Albaraccin, one of Spain's most scenic towns. A long climb up, interesting buildings but no bun shops |
||
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
Then 3 days of luxury at Mas de la Costa, near Vallederrobres . Good welcome from Christian & Francoise and an infinity,cold pool for the madre to swim in |

Portions too large for us, so ate more simply outside for 2 nights. Healthy option at breakfast, just OJ and the views! . Lots of wondrous walks too |

A morning's wine tasting included demonstrating our tractor skills to Philippe |
||
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Then an excursion to Morella where we had a bonus: watching Spain's future toreros training- at the age of 2! Also dinosaurs | |||
 |
 |
 |
 |
Dragged the madre right up to the top & then decided, gluttonously, on a spot of lunch: bad decision. These lads were fun! |

Then the open road through El Ports Naional Park back to the autovia and home
And when are we next off?
