Here in Spain!

After a long but uneventful flight we landed in Barcelona. Had a great sleep and a fab hotel, caught the train to Alicante the next morning, arrived at our resort in Torrevieja that evening.
Our place is great and looks over a beautiful garden and is a 5minute walk to the beach.
Took a drive to the mountain top village of Guadalest where we had some spectacular views of the countryside. There is an interesting small church right on the edge.
We also visited a shoe outlet with hand made leather shoes, I couldn't resist buying a couple of pairs of course!
Have been spending time with the folks who are doing well, also had some nice meals at outdoor cafes by the beach.
Life is good!
