We went to Bilbao and we went in the maritime museum. In the playmobile scenes we had to find the mouse. We went on a boat and met someone who was travelling round the world.

We woke to beautiful blue skies in Caceres this morning and as we are on a bit of a schedule now to hit the remaining sites before we head home we decided to set off early towards Madrid in the hope of squeezing in a trip to Toledo on the way. The day was warming up, but we took the turn off the motorway to Toledo late morning only to drive into a cloud, and a cold one at that - what?! - that's just not fair! But we grabbed the coats and followed the crowds tow...
