It was still hot and the long straight road just kept going and going with nothing to break the monotony of the empty plains and the expanse of dusty red soil and the occasional vineyard. As we drove I started to get a sense of just how big Spain is, four times larger than England and not as many people living in it either. At some point in the afternoon we crossed the Guadiana River for a second time today and then drove through the towns of Valdepeñas and Tembleque and then the sun started to go down and it started to get dark.
