Benicarlo was our first stop on the way home, roughly
halfway between Valencia and Barcelona. We stayed for two nights. The site led
directly onto a shingle beach, golden grit rather than golden sand, but very
pleasant.
The town has a large fishing fleet and we observed the
extraordinary sight of the fishing boats all racing in for the start of the
fish auction. There were well over a dozen coming from all directions so I
couldn’t get more than a few in one photo.
It looks more
dramatic on telephoto, like Formula One, neck and neck for the finishing line.
This one’s so low in
the water it might sink- it’s caught that many fish. Come on, you’ll make it!
Enough excitement
for one day. A day’s travel from Benicarlo and we reached Carcassonne in the
south of France and then, another day on the road, we’re in Limoges. Here we
stayed for a few days.
