Salamanca

Set off in hard driving rain this am heading south and onto Portugal. It seems the whole of Spain is covered in dense cloud, it doesn't just rain on the plain.
Drove to Salamanca, parked the caravan at a nice site by the river Tormes and headed into the city for some dinner.
It really is a beautiful city, as the tourist information map says: "Every area, with its columns and its supports, opens up and finds a meaning(???) ..a true outdoors museum"

Headed to Plaza Mayor where a party was going off... The Salamanca regions womens basketball team had won the premiership and were being toasted by the city! It was great fun. (Rog wanted to stay..)

Had pizza and ice-cream for tea and headed home... more hail!!

New cathedral, Salamanca
