Gata de Gorgos (Alicante) - Base Camp Gavà (Barcelona)
478  km

In the past few days, I wasn't quite sure if I wanted to venture out into the world again 😱. I barely have time to enjoy my home and my sofa, and it hasn't even been a month since we returned from the Dominican Republic 😅.

However, yesterday, as I was finishing up preparations and loading Thorqui, I started to feel the excitement, and this morning at seven, I was already dancing around the house eager to explore the world.
Thorsten, on the other hand, who couldn't wait to leave again, was a bit sluggish this morning 🫠.
For us, it was a calm and perfect trip. T and Beast got a little lost but also arrived perfectly at the campsite.
Tonight, we are staying in Barcelona and took the bus down to the center to have dinner with my kids who live here.
And when I say "my kids," I mean one, the oldest, because the youngest (long live family communication) wrote to me two days ago to say he was coming to spend a few days at home 🤔. We crossed paths on the road 🤣.
The truth is that coming to Barna is always a pleasure for me. I lived here for a few years, and it's a city I really like.
The restaurant was chosen by my son Raúl. Middle Eastern cuisine 😋... Everything was delicious, and the company was even better.

We had a really nice time. Since they live far away now, I can't see them as much as I would like 😓.

The return was quick because there was less traffic. There's not much more to tell you about today. The campsite is great and very well connected.
Tonight, we are going to sleep early. T hasn't ridden the motorcycle in months, and he looked tired. I was a bit less tired because Thorqui is more comfortable... still, we both felt what it means to be on the road.
The trip is officially inaugurated. We haven't followed any route, so you'll have to experience it with us as we get inspired 😉.

Good night… I'll keep you posted 😊
