Ezcaray

We were goin to cycle the Via Verde del Oja. A green way from Ezcaray to Casalarreina a 27 km rise on an old railway bed. We intended to stop at the aire in Casalarreina and cycle up to Ezcaray, but the aire had an encampment of old pickups and caravans and no campervans, we didn't fancy leaving the van there so we decided on the Ezcaray aire.
The aire was in a very nice shaded situation by a municipal park and playground next to a resteraunt, the only difficulty we had was that the main bridge in the town was closed and the detour was not well signposted. A quick Google map search found another bridge.
My Tomtom Go satnav in the van has the ability to update the map information, I notified the app that the bridge was closed and the next day the map was update. Quite impressed.
The cycle to Casalarreina was now downhill, for almost the whole 27 km, which means it is up hill on the way back, not easy when the temperature is 31°C in the shade and there was no shade.
A quick visit into Casalarreina and a couple of cold beers put us in the mood for the return.
A good quiet night and off to Gesaltza Añana tomorrow followed by a couple of nights in a Camping Angosto to do the washing, charge batteries and have a spread out.
