Roads

I take my helmet off to the Spanish authorities and their road builders. They are certainly not shy at spending money on their infrastructure, unlike in the UK. Almost 3k miles up and no sign of a pothole. Granted, not every piece of tarmac has been smooth but the autovia up to Toledo is just incredible. Mile after mile of super, super, smooth black tarmac. I barely felt a bump the whole time we were on it. How they get it so smooth is beyond me. Three cheers for Spanish road builders. Hip, hip!
