The Caravan Club Highlights of Spain Grand Tour 2015 Stop 2

We left Haro and headed for camping Monte Holiday, just outside Madrid. This place never fails to disappoint. The super deluxe pitches overlooking the stunning countryside and the staff here and their efficiency and friendliness really cannot be beaten. We arrived in the early afternoon  and had the most amazing meal in the restaurant. The entire evening from start to finish was impossible to fault.






Suck Peter suck!
All I can say that this was really Spanish cuisine at its best. Being sad I came back to the caravan and watched Masterchef  but the food that we ate last night would have beaten anything on there,!
So today was a coach trip to Segovia.  The campsite sent a lovely member of staff with us. The forecast was showers so she promptly gave each couple a golfing umbrella!  She then went on to hand out goody bags for our hours coach journey! Bottles of water,boiled sweets,tissues and maps! Some of the ladies were a little cold so the member of staff nipped into a shop and bought us all scarves,
! Service and care or what?!
 It was an interesting day and then we were fed again....suckling pig . The restaurant was amazing but the views did it for us


The view from the dining table!

Some views inside however weren't so good!

Segovia and her aqueduct is why we were really here!



The cultural bit..This is where Is a belle the Catholic was crowned.  What she later went on to do for this Country was unbelievable.

How I love this scenery here. The view of my van

I couldn't help laugh when our friends and neighbours put their new canopy up

I was getting a bit worried. We are staying for 6 nights here. I think Lizs arms might be a bit sore after that length of time!
Well today ,Sunday is a day off and all its done is rain...One thing for it...team meeting in the bar. Watch out Madrid tomorrow here we come,
