Our destination for the day was Santander and we had pre-booked a hotel on the other side of the bay in a small village the day before. With less than 200 kms to go, we were expecting to be at our hotel before lunchtime, which is pretty much what happened. Although we traveled almost exclusively on highways, the drive was pleasant and rather scenic, providing alpine like impressions.
After checking into our hotel we drove around 20 kms around the bay to the Bahia hotel in front of which we had left our scooters 3 days before. After ensuring that the scooters were still ok and unharmed, we proceeded to the Santander airport (10 minutes drive) to return the rental car. A bus took us from the airport to the main bus terminus in town, which was close to where our scooters were parked. Finally back on our scooters we enjoyed the clear weather ride to our hotel on the other side of the bay.
The hotel provided us with a solid and reliable internet connection both on our room as well as in the public areas. This was something we had missed for a few days and we used the rest of the afternoon to catch up with admin work.
Not in a mood for long restaurant hunting, we decided to have dinner at our hotel. While the hotel was truly nice and recommendable, the dinner was rather unexciting and could best we described as successful blend of boring spanish cooking and orig english cooking.
