Out to Spain on the 23rd of August, to the 9th of September. Weather was great very hot and good for the beach and swimming in the pool. I was on pool opening duty, and it was great to have our 1st swim of the day at nine in the morning. Met Nazim, one of the property owners and had good times with him and his family around the pool, I did an ice bucket challenge (bit of a cheat as it was about 32C at the time) see video below:
We also found a new shopping / restaurant complex called the Filton Centre, which is in Los Balcones (just up from the Torrevieja Hospital) The restaurant that we have eaten at several time is the Alingui which gets good reviews. the food is really nice and you get plenty of it. The menu of the day is 3 courses for 7.90 Euros. There are also several other restaurants in this complex and we hope to try them all.
We met a couple on holiday called Aaron and Chereen, a very nice young couple that were budding actors, we spent quite a few pleasant hours passing the time and day with them, around the pool, going out for meals and visiting the local Zoco market. (the Zoco market is near the town of Benijófar and is a great place to get your veggies and fruit, plus lots of other stalls)
We had great weather for the 17 days we were there with temperatures always in the 30's and up to 39C.
