HAVING dried out, we’re down
on the Ebro Delta in the newly chilly weather. “Just like a summer holiday in England
By way of compensation there
are an awful lot of interesting birds, including flamingos, slender billed
gulls, 20 or more Med gulls, Caspian tern and a marsh harrier hunting just 20
yards in front of us.
Having stocked up for a
small siege at the Bonpreu supermarket in Deltebre, we park for the night alongside
three or four other vans at a free aire outside a restaurant, looking out over
reed beds and a lagoon – all a bit desolate, really, but it's cosy in the van
and things are bound to improve.
Then comes a phone call that cuts short our trip.
