Two days ago we arrived in the village of Aiguines in France on the lake Lac de Sainte Croix, which is connected to the river Verdon in the Grand Canyon of Europe. Now we are at camping L'Aigle and here we have a great view, both of the castle Chateau Aiguines and the lake Lac de Sainte Croix.

The Gorges du Verdon in France is sometimes called the Grand Canyon of Europe, and it's not hard to see why. This deep canyon is surrounded by dramatically high mountain ridges, and through it flows a bright green shimmering river. A motorway winds along the steep cliffs, where you can enjoy the fascinating views at a slow pace. The Gorges du Verdon in the Alpes-Du-Haute-Provence in south-eastern France is one of the most beautiful natural areas we have seen in Europe.

Today we drove through a desert landscape in Spain. It is barren and mountainous and hardly any vegetables anywhere. Sometimes the landscape can be almost beautiful. Sometimes it feels rather ghostly. You sometimes wonder if you are on the moon.

We travelled to the Cabo de Sao Vicente headland near Sagres in Portugal. Here, in southern Portugal, we found Europe's most south-westerly point. The sea crashes into 75-metre-high cliffs, and one of Europe's most powerful lighthouses sends its light signals across the Atlantic. We also visited the nearby Ponta de Sagres headland. Join us at the dramatic Cabo de Sao Vicente headland and the great sea battles!

Today we rolled the campervan to the beach in Galé on the outskirts of Albufeira, here in the south of Portugal. We haven't exercised for ages, so today was the day! We went jogging on the beach and did some occasional exercises from our usual training programme. It's good to be up and running again! Then it was tuna salad on the beach and a few lazy hours in the sun.

Picos de Europa is a multi-mountain national park in northern Spain, located just off the coast between Santander and Gijón. The road in from the coast heads uphill, passing charming villages, small hotels and restaurants and pastures with cows, horses, sheep and goats. The mountains rise dizzyingly high into the sky and this must be a great place to wander on a hot summer's day.
