02.01.18 Hadrien has come into his own with planning this trip. today, he took us on his own version of a Golden Circle Tour. It saved us over $400 on tour fees by using our own hire car. We first stopped at the Secret Lagoon. It wasn’t too busy and the water was so hot. […]
Day 47 – 18th December NB: Before I get started, I’d just like to point out the two ‘free’ postcards we had were so tasetful. I don’t understand why more places don’t do this! So today, we went to Bilbao. Poor Hadrien, was gutted that we could not go to the Guggenheim. Evidently, France AND […]
