There is a sports centre and bar about 5 minutes from the hostel in Dumbria which is open until 7.30. They have Wi-Fi access here for free.
I am the only person in the 'bar' and there is no sight of anyone doing sport, but that can be deceptive in Spain I know, and there is probably a huge match going on only 2 minutes away.
I have to say this,doesn't feel like high summer...there is more of a tumbleweed atmosphere around if you know what I mean. They,are having a full-on awful recession in Spain of course.
I am looking forward to dipping my feet in the ocean tomorrow. I can't tell you how nice I know it will feel.
South America is really big and I have never been there. I am leaving the safety of my teaching job to explore 5 spanish-speaking countries and to walk in the footsteps of Charles Darwin on the Galapagos Islands. I am hoping that neither the perilous altitudes of Ecuador, the ravenous midges in the Peruvian rainforest or the crazy Bolivian bus drivers will kill me... I will doubtless meet other people on the edge of sanity who feel the need to wander away from safety. I hope we can be friends.
