Hotel Habaneros Cartagena

Well, another day on the road. Sunday. Not a good day in Spain. They take there Jesus and stuff like that pretty serious over here. This probably explains the the 50 ft statue they built of him on top of a mountain. I mean, honestly, i dont want to say i could do things better, but, spend that money on finishing buildings or building roads that cyclists can use, or policing the beaches, anything but a 50 ft statue. Waste of money.

So, anyway, we arrived in ...

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 ...

Yesterday was spent mostley lazing about the pool went to an English owned retaurant for something to eat I order chicken and Chips and Josh had full english breakfast! It was 8 Euros for each meal and the meals were far to big for that heat. Because we had over stuffed ourself we then went and relaxed by the pool for the rest of the day.

On the evening we decided that we were going ...

... 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.

... all the locals seemed to be at this bar and no tourist except for me and Josh and this is exsacly what i wanted to go to the more spanish areas with the locals and not the tourist areas.

Then after a drink there i went for a swim in the sea and we walked back to the villa and swam in the swimming pool.

It was about 3pm and 39 degress now!! Then sat on the balcony read a book and walked down to the restaurant at 8pm to take my ...

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.

We were here during a national holiday. Unfortunately, we did not have any Euros on us and couldnt get any b/c the banks were closed. We thought it would be ok if we went for a quick lunch (since we couldnt pay to do anything else) and planned on ...

Day two, i slept until 1000 am by which time Sallie and Ray, ray having been ill during the night had left to wander round the town. Vic and I had a light (continental) breakfast as we missed the cooked breakfast and went for a wander round the town. Categena is a very quiet town and other than a few historic sights not a lot to do, so after a good wander round and a cup of ...
