Tuesday 23rd December 2014 The last few days have been blog-o-mania. Jill & Martin have arrived but we have yet to see them, overnight was one of the coldest that we’ve experienced – here’s hoping that they’re still down here and didn’t decide to fly home first thing this morning. If Salobrena or the…
Wednesday 17th December 2014 We have a neighbouring campsite ‘Camping Playa de Poniente’ and, prior to our arrival here, it was our chosen location for the festive period. However, after inspecting the site I rejected it as being too much like a refugee camp – but maybe that was just me being a little…
Monday 15th December 2014 We will be in Motril until 2nd January and we then have to make a decision: either head up the east coast of Spain or to return to Portugal and head up the Atlantic coast. We shall see. One thing that we do know is that we need to be back…
Wednesday 10th December 2014 The days can become ‘samey’ when you’re in one location for the foreseeable future, tasks that you rush to do when a stop-over is limited to 1, 2 or 3 days are left until ‘mañana’ and increasingly (in my case) postponed until the last few days of a long stop-over. Without…
Monday 8th December 2014 This morning we set out early from Twernt as we were hoping to get a picture of a car ferry with the sun rising over the Med – we wanted to produce a quick blog post to wish ‘bon voyage’ to our friends, Eric and Shazza, as they take ‘Big Momma’…
Saturday 6th December 2014 At midnight plus 15 minutes I left Twernt and walked down to the camping entrance to stand at the roadside and become a ‘live’ version of a ‘Google Earth Placemark/Pin’ for Ed & Will arriving from Malaga in their rental car. It’s possible to arrive here from either direction so I…
Friday 5th December 2014 Sons Ed & Will are due here in a few hours. They won’t be here until 1:00am-ish on Saturday morning – they will have their own written instructions on how to get to Camping Playa Granada from Malaga and bloggerlugs (yours truly) will need to stand at the campsite entrance and…
Thursday 4th December 2014 Happy 24th Birthday to our youngest son William! Today is son William’s birthday, he doesn’t ‘do’ Facebook and we can rarely reach him on Skype so here’s hoping that he will notice this new blog being swiftly posted to arrive on his birthday. Have a…
Wednesday 3rd December 2014 Well it’s been a while! It’s possible to assign a date other than the current date to WordPress ‘blogs’ so I’m now empowered to publish current ‘blogs’ and then ‘reverse time fill’ the older ‘blogs’ into their correct date order – once I’ve written them! Sometimes the best plan is to not…
Monday 24th November 2014 – Sunday 30th November 2014 Leaving Manilva, we stopped to ‘diesel-up’ on the N-340 and then drove on through Estepona until we got to Marbella; great sea views throughout the drive, but, as you can imagine for this popular area, a lot of traffic. We’ve never been to any of the…
