Sao Pedro de Meol

After a week at the seaside we are planning to move inland tomorrow.

Our original plan was to stop for a couple of days in Meridha,which I think, is a lake district in Spain, then further inland to Madrid for 4 nights to pick up on SPB's route again. But after a perusal of the AA road map we have know decided to cut short Madrid and add in a 2 night stop in Toledo.

I think that we will notice a difference in the temperatures inland. It has been quite cool here on the coast, I suppose the average daytime temperature has been about 25C with a cooling breeze. I have been surprised by the weather so far on this trip. It was a lot cooler in Northern Spain than we expected and even when we reached Portugal the wind was so cool at first that, in the shade, you needed a light sweater. Is this typical, or are they having the same Atlantic low that has blighted the UK summer this year?
