2023 Eupopean adventure - day 25 (25 September)

It has to happen I suppose but Elizabeth caught a head cold with a very sore throat before we left Spain and it just hasn't improved. In fact we thought she'd better get it checked out today in case infection was involved. Off to the hospital first to see if they'd check it out but after about an hour and z half of waiting they said they'd made a midday appointment at the GP just near our hotel. HE was pretty good and said there was no infection but prescribed things for ears, nose, throat which interestingly all cost less than 50 Euro - and his fee was only 25 Euro. After a light lunch we headed off to our original site which was the Bayeaux Tapestry Remarkable. 68 metres long by 50cm high on a continuous piece of cloth it depicts the whole story from Edward deciding that Harold would succeed him through all the meetings, preparations for war and finally the Battle of Hastings where Harold was killed and William became king of England.Amazing detail and verry colourful. A must see if ever the opportunity arises. Quiet night in with a lovely pizza from just down the road as didn't think restaurants would appreciate a couple of coughing customers!
