Day 68: La Isleta del Moro (Drive)
We are experiencing way too much weather down here in Andalusia! This period of inclementness has become very persistent: The current phenomenon of one rain front almost immediately followed by another seems to not want to come to an end - the rain in Spain is not mainly falling on the plain!
Anyway, it is what it is. Hopefully it will come to an end soon.
Meanwhile, I've checked the forecasts and it would appear that the area in which I've moved to is predicted to have the best weather conditions in Andalusia for the coming couple of days- At least it is according to the "where to go" feature of the Meteoblue weather App. However, all it needs is for one butterfly to flap its wings at an inappropriate time for the weather conditions to be the complete opposite from that which was predicted (Chaos Theory 101!).
La Isleta del Moro is a little east of Retamar, when ideally I'd have continued to travel in a westerly direction. However, it is quite a nice place to be parked-up.

Today, visited Almeria, bought bread, milk, proper yogurt, and salad stuff. More importantly, I refilled the gas tank. I need gas to cook, and the tank was indicating it was down to the final green light. No gas, no coffee, no hot food, no way!
