After leaving the campsite we headed for home. We were told not to miss the old city of Teruel. It was a nice. As you can tell, I was not planning on spending so many days touring. I am wearing the same clothes from the hike. I know Jessica, not very flattering. :)
José had looked at the map and wanted to go a couple hours more North and I told him I was getting a little anxious to get back home so he decided home we would go. We will save the Northeast of Spain for another trip. On our way back to Elche one not so great thing happened. I needed to use the servicios (toilet) and we saw a sign for them off the Autovia so we stopped at Hotel Euroruta and inquired about using the servicios. The man said they were for guests only. He mentioned that there was one on the exterior of the building if we needed. So we went to look. The womans side was locked which left me with a urinal on the floor. Grrrr, well I guess it was better than the side of the road. Anyway, when we tried to leave the gate was closed. José went in to see how to get out. The man told him he needed to pay 2 Euro to leave. This was a for the use of the servicios he said. It was the first time I saw José get upset. He couldn ´t believe it would cost 2 Euro to leave. He saw that someone from the Hotel was leaving so he was going to follow this person out, but the door man walked out to the gate and stood in front of our car until the gate closed again. Well, we ended up having to pay to leave and the receipt says for parking. When we left there was a pair of motorcylcles going to come in and we let them know unless they were getting a room there would be a fee to enter and leave. They took off down the road.

not flattering?
That's ridiculous! How much is 2 euros? And for what bathroom!
2 Euros is equal to about 3 dollars.
