Hotel Llevant Llafranc

... this period of year there are mostly aged people resting there, however I noticed there a lot of clubs near the beaches, so I consider that in summer this town is full of students. The beaches are sandy and what is important all those beaches are public. And one more thing - there are NO PRIVATE BEACHES in Lloret de Mar!

... and very promising until we got out of the car and explored. The village is obviously quite new, and rents must be high, as the prices were high too! How disappointing. We returned to the car with time on our hands and made a decision to visit Tossa De Mar.

Chris & Milly had stayed at Tossa on a previous visit to Spain and raved about it, so we set ...

... Alison bought a small leather change purse for €2 to replace her stolen wallet. Then it was back to enjoy the pool at the timeshare. We spent a very relaxing day enjoying each others company, sunbathing in the heat of the day, before heading back to Girona airport with Chris & Milly at night, so that they could catch their flight back to London. Our farewells weren’t too teary, as we knew we would see them again in two weeks, in Auckland.

The timeshare (Port de Rei) is situated a short distance out of the town of L'Escala. We drove through town following Dora’s directions, but were not too sure where we were headed, eventually ending up outside a large building built on a rugged coast overlooking the Mediterranean. Our plan was to inform the manager of our late arrival (on the next day) and then head towards Girona where we were to pick up Chris & Milly who were joining us for the ...

WE forget to point out a few last details about Ibiza, on our last night Catis fully offered ´pills´ ( not the kind that makes your cold go away... ) which she obviously declined... Since Ibiza we have been fully sick and poor Cat is dealing with my heavy breathing and snoring... earplugs have been much needed for her.. and sadly otehr backpackers that we have come accross...

Cat is too funny ...

escribo esto tirado en las playas catalanes. A la derecha, la muralla.
A la izquierda, la Minerva. Es la playa principal de Tossa de Mar,
medirá aproximadamente 200 metros de extencion y de la calle al mar
habrá unos 100 metros.
Esta muy bueno acá, hay sol pero no molesta, hace calor pero no
agobiante.
la parte urbana es pequeña pero muy linda, con callejuelas y todo muy
cerca!
desp escribo desde la muralla!

... it was evident from everything he produced and how he lived. An incredible and inspiring love story.

I decided to take a little vacation from my vacation and work on my tan here in Cadaques. The sea, the sun and village wandering take up most of my time. I´m scheduled to leave here on Monday, but once I realized I could do whatever I wanted, life changed. Maybe that is my inspiration. Como un sueño.

... or stamp our passports, which was sad. The little town we visited in the south of France was also basically perfect. Sun, sea, beautiful little church, good lunch. Words really aren't enough to describe this different kind of reality I encountered on this trip. See pictures below-it was wonderful. And the few French people I met (the waitress....) did not seem to hate me, which is always nice.

Girona was our home base for this weekend, and ...

Sitting on the balcony now having caviar, beer and cheese with my sister and wife....does not get much better than this for our annivesary!!!
