Day 11 and 12 Bajar - Embalse de Alacantara - Caceres 103 km and 82km cycled..second best day for distance..My friend the tail wind was back with avengance

 You can see the Morrish influence coming into play
 More construction!
 More construction around the town!....did´nt like it at all
 The order seems a bit muddled, but this castle was just outside Caceres...
 Inside...

 What the walled town of Caceres looked like, now its sourrounded by horrible industrial estates..
 Nice stairs..
 This old walled town of Careces was hyped up in the Rough Guide, but I did´nt get it at all. Maybe it had something to do with all the construction. It was if they were rebuilding it!!...
 This part was nice though..
 Some amazing castle that was open with nobody around so had a peek
 ´..Ha first puncture!..joy, then the rain came..
 A cork tree, stripped bare to reveal amazing deep red core
 Featurless plain...this was quite boring cycling through to be honest
 Ah...Okay next quiz!...Who can find out what this building is meant to be, and whom is it done by, so I can shot him!..ha, just kidding, not very subtle though
 ...mmm whats else is there to photograph..Car for anyone?!!
 First Palm trees...like I said the order has got a bit muddled, this was outside Caceres

 500 MILE MARK!!!!.....Woop!!!

 Coming up to an amazing Resivour..with Roman bridge and great hostel
 Amazing view1

 The Camino Hostel...
 New friends....
 The hard life of a camino!....This hostel was outstanding in design and location..Some guy even did my washing for me...Oh and Pizza and Beer?!!..great after 103km


 Dorms..what a great idea, so everytime somebody got out to go to the toilet they did´nt wake everyone up, although the snoring and F$%ting did´nt help
 bye-bye folks!!..
 Typical breakfast of Bread and amazing Coffe...I havn´t seen a single starbucks the entire time, and starbucks would´nt have a clue as to how to make coffee this good!!..
 Agaian the Moorish influence coming in
