Best Western Hotel Alfonsoxiii Cartagena

... after a few miles of cycling. Murcia basically has about 6 motorways going through it. Cant cycle on these. cant navigate because of our incredibly basic A3 map of spain. So we went and bought a beer. Then, a bit drunk (what!? it was hot and we were dehydrated from cycling) we aimlessly cycled around until we found a more detailed map behind some perspex glass, up a lamp post, at a bus stop. Probably shouldnt have taken it but desperate times.. . . . we are ...

Last night we went to a spanish beach bar which was right on the beach no English people were there and non of the bar staff spoke English which i really like! I like to see a country from the locals no touristy areas.

Today we went to the Puerto de Mazzron in the day we got a bus down which was half hour late! We went to a restaurant which we had previously been ...

... all the back roads which were terrible and really bad and bumpy. We arrived on the port and went to a pub which was run by an English women, stayed there for one drink and then went for a walk there was a spanish punch and judy show (In spanish) we stood and watch that for ten minutes! It was strange because it was 11:15pm and there was spanish kids everywhere still up and it was packed ...

... selling these long things which looked like long thick chips. I wasnt that good at spanish to ask what they were so i just went a pointed saying una! She said Ingles and i said yes she gave me one portain( six sticks) and i put sugar on them as i saw other people doing

They were very nice it was like donut dough in a long stick which was fried, I later found out by my nan that they were called Churrioes.

Then we went back layed by the pool that night we had dinner at me nans.

We arrived at Murcia airport after quite a bumpy ride the turbalnce was very bad and people were scream but we survived :-D!! When we arrived it was already 35 degrees and only 1030am.

It was about an hours drive from Muricia San Javier airport to Bolnuevo and we arrived at bout 11:30 am the view from the villa was amazing could see the sea view! We didnt waste any time and went straight to the beach and walked a few miles in the ...

One may think that with the trouble we had in getting here, we weren't meant to be here. There was a fire on another train aheadd of us, and we were delayed by 2 hours. Then our train was having problems and we had to transfer to another train. All in all we arrived in Murcia at 12:45am, 4 hours late, but very excited to see Javier, Carmen and still waiting to see the girls who got up and went to school while we still slept.

... about this and having been impressed with their travel money service I gave them a call. The info they provided was great and they broke it all down for me and explained how each process worked.

I'm happy to announce that we are now looking at a house in Brittany, France and feel completely secure entrusting our savings with No1 Currency.

I'd definitely recommend them to anyone looking for any type of currency transfer.

Sunday, 7 December dawned bright but chilly as we anchored at Cartagena, Spain, a smallish town on the Iberian Peninsula closely linked to Spain's maritime and naval history. Cartagena, pronounced Carta-Hena, means New City. This was our first port for the two-week transatlantic cruise and it had been a substitution, together with Gibraltar, after the stops at the Moroccan ...

... has been stiff. It's not the poor girl's fault, though. But I'll have to see the neurologist when I get home. Everyone I talked to who went in said it was "a very clean little town." It was named for the Carthaginians, who established a fort here, and of course, after the Romans it's always the Turks, so there is some Moorish influence, though most of the old stuff is in ruins. It is a natural harbor and is a naval site of some ...
