Relaxing In Marbella-Tim
Camping Carbapino is a beautiful site. Set back from the main road in amongst the trees with lots of amenities especially the big heated pool and with lovely and very helpful staff. We had decided to stay for 2 nights but in the end stayed for 4 partly because we had another day of rain but mainly because we loved the site and Marbella. Lots of washing to do after Morrocco and all enjoying being back in the van again. I have to say I ...

Our five tapas and sangria and a glass of local wine costs us a grand total of 11-50 euro. Paul still has the munches though and wants some dessert, I'm not so keen so he settles on getting an ice cream from (of all places) Burger King. Sadly, they even have them ...
