At last Malaga - Soon we'll be in Morocco

We have just arrived at the Alhurian Golf Hotel, about 50km outside of Malaga town. The ferry to Morocco doesn't depart before the 5th of october, but we had to start our travel through Europe in good time so if anything would have happend to the car we would have had time to fix it and still make time for the ferry crossing. We bought the tickets many moths ago...

We have made good time throug Europe with no troubles, from Stavanger to Malaga we have driven 3300 km. We had some detours to take since the GPS did speak to slow some times, if you miss a exit on the highway you have to drive for miles until you can make an exit to get back on the right road. We have only missed 4 exits on the whole trip.That in all have made us travel for 3 hours longer. Not to bad. Still we have to wait until wednesday morning to start our travel in to Morocco.

Anyway we have just got our first shower since thursday and Martin could not last remember when a shower felt that good....

We will stay at the hotel for 1,5 days, and its good to rest up well after traveling through all of Europe with heavy traffic. To night we will have a good dinner at the hotel and drink Heiniken beer in the
hotel room that I infact did bring with me from Norway :-)

Tomorrow we will sleep in, since we have not slept good in the roof tent not far from the highways brawling!!.. Its about 30 C here in Malaga and a nice light breze..(Glad we did not travel in high summer) We have only seen blue sky since we left Denmark and expecting even warmer days in Morocco.

Tomorrow we will have a good look at the car and fill it up with diesel and stock up on food, so we can relax the rest of thursday before heading out for 2 weeks in the car.

Through Europe we have not made many stops so all pictures is only from cruising speed in the car. But here is some pic from our travel today in spain.

Sorry for the short post yesterday, but I was wrighting in the car will Martin was driving in the dark, and we made a wrong exit and the GPS whent bannans, as did Martin, hehe. So by mistake and stressed at the time I deleted everything i has ready to post... :( O'well thats life, but life is good now on the road.

Sending a big hello to all freinds and famaly , we are thinking of you all the time and hope you are all following us..
