Eurotrip 7, 2018 – Day 57, A1 Madrid to Burgos…

Standard

A very pleasant start to the day with the sun shining but still a cold nip presides over Madrid.

The heated shower blocks were fully utilised before our 11:00am departure – heading Burgos.

A fairly un-eventful journey, arriving at Camping Fuentes Blancas near to Burgos around 15:30 which included a long stop for lunch at around the half way point. Snow was forecast and although we didn’t see any on the roads, there were manned snow ploughs at many of the service areas in preparation for adverse weather.

Madrid to Burgos – snow is anticipated…

Camping Fuentes Blancas at Burgos looks a great stopover site. It’s very busy with travellers heading both North and South. The washroom facilities are ok (not heated which is a shame) but the main campsite looks a little neglected. The electrics are in dire need of replacement and the pitches could use some care and attention.

It is though a municipal site so maybe that explains it…

Our Pitch (44 or 45) at Camping Fuentes Blancas…

We should have time to visit the Cathedral at Burgos in the morning before our final night in Spain this spring.
