Well, we set off from home in the rain, flew out of Blackpool in the rain but arrived in glorious sunshine.
Picked up the car, a Ford Focus estate (deisel unfortunately) and managed the hour and a half journey to Javea without incident - right hand gear changes do take a bit of getting used to though.
Had afternoon tea in the sunshine and caught up with a few things beside the pool.
Then unpacked and spent an amusing half hour chasing the robot vac around trying to get a decent photograph (that's the futuristic looking thing in the last photo), before setting off for evening meal at the Montgo restaurant. You get really good value for money on meals in Spain, €9.50 gets you a very tasty 3 course meal with half a bottle of wine thrown in!
Then to finish off our first day we took a walk along the sea front in Javea (temp 20 deg C at 9:00pm) and had a coffee sat outside one of the seaside bars.
Wel, that's all for tonight - thanks for the comment Tone - I know Lucy has been having problems commenting, if any else is experiencing difficulty please email me and I'll see if I can sort it out.
That's working very well Pete, everything displays neatly and the photos click to zoom (they're pretty hi res aren't they). That's probably one of the best things about living in the Mediterranean - wandering about in the barmy evening air. All in all impressive presentation. Have fun and I await the next installment of the captain's log. PS I have called Mulder & Sculley to investigate that alien craft on the floor.
ReplyDeletepps my regards to Richard & Nina (have you got a license for that cute baby seal on the terrace??).
Hello there! Wow, the weather looks amazing – I think the sun may have left with you though as we’ve had nothing but rain since the weekend! Otherwise all is well back home, Iain kept Mickey company for a couple of hours this morning and I’ve just given him his tea (all gone in less than 5 minutes!). Looking forward to more updates! Lots of love xxx
