| Beautiful Benidorm! |
Albarracin
Weather: The hardy
Dutch are sunbathing but with an air temp. of 14° we’re piling on the warm jumpers
Not a lot to
tell. After plenty of walking,
cycling and eating we left our lovely campsite at El Berro and optimistically
made our way back to the coast to try the Costas again.
On the way we stopped
in a supermarket car park in Benidorm for lunch, as you would. Well it wasn’t just any supermarket it
was a ginormous Planet Carrefour that was open even though it was Sunday. And this meant we didn’t have to eat a
day old baguette for lunch and crack open a tin of beans for dinner. The other bumper bonus was that we got
the piñatas for my birthday and a teeny tiny bucket and spade set for little
Nyah.
And don’t think that the
Spanish are sniffy about Planet Carrefour either. It seemed to be the weekend for confirmation and we kept
seeing little girls all dressed up in huge frilly white dresses, then as we
walked past the restaurant in Carrefour we saw it had been set up for a huge
dinner to celebrate a girl’s confirmation. I guess that if you liked the meal you could buy it in the
supermarket to eat another day. |
| What?? |
We ended up at an
almost deserted campsite on the coast at Javea which was like a Daily Mail
version of Benidorm. But we got my
bike fixed (again) and after David almost had an apoplexy when a German couple
ignored hundreds of empty spaces to park next to us, we have moved on back to
the mountains. Colder, still
almost exclusively Dutch, but much better than the coast.
