We have today travelled to just south of Madrid from Malaga and it was all fine, a little rain and low cloud that's all. Tomorrow Burgos and Bilbao the next day...just looked at Spanish forecasts and looks clear. It must be the Pyranee areas which is not surprising.

Stayed in Burgos last Wednesday night on the way up to Bilbao, arrived there in sunshine but woke up to snow.
Only parked up with the front wheels 3 foot from the site road but had to be towed off.

Hey we were up there yesterday for a meal in Espuña Bar. Didn't have our usual stroll around because of the weather! Would have come to say hello if wed known a FUNster was on site.

Thanks for warning, it's pretty nippy here at present but bright and looks like suns coming up. Will remain vigilant.

Just hauled up at Burgos ACSI site, no snow but nearly like a bog due to lots of rain. Went just that little bit to far back from hard stuff as and had to have little pull out. Probably better off using camperstop or Aire . Front wheels now on hard stuff!
