Today took us to the north shore up and down and round and round. These roads are not for those who don’t like driving, but we both love it! Once again over mountain ridges, through cattle zones, tidy villages, and views that never end.

We saw the most amazing surf along the northern shore. It was absolutely mesmerizing.

Other than the surf, another huge highlight was taking a cable car down the very steep cliffs to the beach – or just above it. The telerifico in Achades de Cruz is definitely worthwhile but not for the faint-hearted or those who suffer with vertigo!

Eats today included a roadside picnic and dinner at Chico’s in Pezares.
