Hi all well I am back after a bad few weeks, with Bessy being broken into then the computer going, but hopefully all well again.We went to Salou an eight hour drive from us to meet up with my sister Alicia and her hubby who are on holiday there.
We had a fantastic time, they are staying at Portaventura a place very much like Disney in America.Wow the rides were great even if they did turn your tummy over more than once.
We first of all spent a day in Barcelona, what a city beautiful is the only way to describe it.
We have been before but in the van so don't see so much but we went on a coach tour this time so we got to see all the sites.
The first place we went to was the Nou Camp the football stadium, Brian loved that, the players were there so that made it all the more perfect for him ( he is a bacca fan and has been to one match there).
You can see where they are building still, I hope they can make it all the same colour as it look out of place next to the old.
After some free time for shopping and sightseeing we were taken to the magic waters this was the dancing fountains to music, the show did not start till ten pm so it was dark and they looked spectacular
The next day we went into Poraventura, we had a super time, the first ride we went on we had rain capes on to keep us from getting wet Ha did that work did it heck we were soaking
Down we came then I thought we were drowning ( we are under there somewhere).I thought that was bad enough but there was more, I stood in the queue looking at this ride thinking what have I done But my brother-in-law Mark was not letting me away, he had been waiting for me to come as Alicia would not go on the rides with him, by the way Brian says he will go on next time. I can't describe the feeling as it went off 0 to 134 
miles in 4 seconds I could not even scream.I am not one with the arms in the air, I am the one with the white knuckles from holding on.I thought well that must be the worse over with wrong again, next came another dipper with so many loops I lost count of them.
Then down to another loop I did not know which way up I was.
After I got off I thought I enjoyed that it was a laugh.Now you have to try this one I was told
The day ended at midnight wit ha parade and more dancing waters but with fireworks it was better than Barcelona.
We have had a great time and I spent some quality time with my sister which was nice.
It was nice to be out in Bessy again and to feel it was ours again, we just have to replace the things that have gone but they could not take the pleasure we get out of it that is still ours.

As you can see there are feral cats that live on the rocks, you see people putting food down for them, you feel sorry for them as they are so thin and scratch themselves like mad so are probably full of flees. You can't take them home as they are wild and don't settle in doors. We had a cat daft neighbour (Tina can tell you about her) she took one in, she kept in in the house two weeks and did not let it out hoping it would get used to home life, but the first time she let it out it never came back, such a shame it would of had a good home.
As the sun set it got more beautiful and the colour was changing all the time.
