Today we had a long day, up at 05:45 and left at 07.00. Exciting and tiring beginning, with gale winds in Tarifa. Took plenty photos and we were beaten by an unceasing strong wind that threw sand into your eyes and everything else… then on to Valencia and we had to stop 5 times today due to the fact that the ultrafast chargers are not spaced as we would need yet, so an extra stop was necessary. We used the Tesla supercharger near Granada and only got 110kw maximum. Our range decreased somewhat due to our lead feet on the loud pedal, as well. Used two Ionity charging at well over 250kw, as usual, an Iberdrola rated at 400kw, that started at 195 kw, and Estepona Zunder (ex-Easycharger) rated at 90kw and charging at that exact rate. The roads were congested at times, as well as Valencia. Charging now at Porsche destination charger in our hotel. Benahavis to Tarifa 87 kms. and Tarifa to Valencia 809 kms. Total time today 12 hours including hotel to Tarifa, visit in Tarifa, driving from Tarifa to Valencia, and charging time. Dip in the pool and dinner, posting this entry. Good night, we must get some rest.
