We were booked on the evening crossing to Santander, scheduled to arrive at 17:30 on the Saturday. We had been in touch with Camping de Haro in Haro, Spain which is around a 2 hour drive (190km) from the port of Santander and would just take the edge of a very long drive the next day.<\/p>\n
The campsite had indicated space wouldn\u2019t be a problem but reception closes at 18:00; however security would be happy to site us after that. Arriving after 22:00 was considered by them less than ideal.<\/p>\n
Our dilemma on reaching Portsmouth was that due to bad weather in the Bay of Biscay the prior weekend, the schedule was recovering and still 2 hours behind our arrival time of 17:30, leaving just 30 minutes to offload and then precisely 2 hours to reach Haro, some of the drive being in the dark in a country we had never towed in before.<\/p>\n
This weekend the Bay of Biscay was kind and we had a pleasant smooth crossing. I hope for similar on the return journey.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
