Bienvenodo a mi dia en Espana

Welcome to my day in Spain

We have another good day out in and around our little part of Spain.

We left our casa at 9 am. and set out to pick up the van which is store a short drive from home,
The sun was shining and the temperature already 30 degs.

The car was nice and cool with the air con on, makes you forget how hot it is outside till you open the door and step out of it, then wham it hits you like a wall

The first thing Tiny does when we get to the van is to lie as near to Brian as she can get, and stays there till we are getting out again. We have to stop till she has a drink as she never moves from her spot till we stop, she is so good traveling.

THE LAKES AT

Our first stop was at another lake Bigger than the last one and so beautiful and peaceful

Just look at that colour, if you had to describe it to anyone it would be very hard to do it justice.

Spain has some very beautiful country side, and many interesting places to see.

You have to admire them,we have yet to find out what the building was used for, the lake is fresh water, and they go fishing in it, this building goes down to the water, there is an other one about 20 metres from it.In days gone by they must of had a purpose, any ideas anyone.We were sorry to move on from here, but run was though the orange groves and almond groves(hard to get away from them round here

This is oranges, they will not be ready till December/ January.

The farmers get 6 cents a kilo(4p) we buy them for 5 kilos for 3 euros in the market. At that price you wonder how the farmers survive.

The almond trees are the most beautiful tree I have seen out here, in February the blossom is out, and for mile after mile the landscape is pink and white.The white blossom trees have almonds that are ground up for marzipan and baking, the pink are the better quality and are sold as nuts at Christmas time, so when you get your nuts at Christmas they most likely came from here and from the gorgeous pink blossom. The smell from the almond and orange blossom which is also out in February is out of this world.

Well on to the coast can't stop here to crowded so pictures have been taken on the move, from van window.

This is the lookey lookey man he will sell you anything, they come round the cafes and beaches, if you say no they usually go and don't pester you too much.

These are the quieter beaches, we could not get near the more popular ones as they don't have traffic near them.

From here we made our way home, after a visit to Tina, we finished the day off on the solarium in the hot tub (not so hot this weather though

A perfect end to a perfect day

Buenos noches all
