Portsmouth to Portugal 12: 25 September

[huskyteer]

We left Portugal and entered Spain at Miranda do Douro. Time jumped forward an hour, the hills grew low and gentle, the post boxes changed colour (I posted some postcards with Portuguese stamps on the Spanish side, but I'm told they turned up eventally) and the Douro river became the Duero as we continued to follow it east

We filtered to the head of a long queue of lorries, where Howard got told off by the Guardia Civil because apparently you're not supposed to do that[.]

Huh, strange. I wouldn't have guessed either you weren't.

The castle sounds great. Was there a throne room? Did you get to sit on a throne?
