... was closed. It was not only a Sunday but the church holiday of All Saints Day. We instead went to a small town called Gata, yes meaning female cat. There was a small bodega which sold the wine so we got to go there and taste a very tiny portion and taste almond nugget. Neither were good. Then we drove to another small town all closed up and got to have ...

Benidorm is called the Manhattan of the Costa Blanca, not cause its super cool, but because of its numerous high rises. We didn't spent much time here, we drove 20 min to the next town called Calpe. We did a cool hike, up a huge rock peninsula, and recommended by the guide book we brought with us. Being experienced hikers and being completely ignorant as to what we ...

These pictures are from me trying to take a photo of myself writing with my ancient feather pen from the Alicante market and from walking around Alicante on a tour of the the two cathedrals, San Nicolas y Santa Barbara.<br>The pictures later are from our visit to two little pueblos just outside of Alicante; Guadalest and Altea. In the little town of Guadalest is a beautiful castle ...

... necklace made out of onion for Annabelle!~! And a pair of mono hammered metal copper earrings!~! It's hard here because spending Euros doesn't seem like you're spending real money--but it is! <br>We meet our host families in two days and that's when it all really begins. I can't wait! I'm just hoping and praying that I live close to the City Centre. And that mi familia es muy amable. <br>Elizabeth and I haven't had to eat ...

... we had met and said our goodbyes. A sad moment but hopefully this was the beginning of many more cool moments. well, unfortunately they would not happen this day because shortly after we left i got a puncture, then we got kicked out of an abandoned house we treid to sleep in and had to settle for a dead lemon grove. Well at least we could have a hot meal. or so we thought until we realised that the fuel we ...

... festival in the world! The people from the town must wait all year for this. We read the schedule, and realized that our plan to lay on the beach (a block away) for 3 relaxing days was going to be impossible. We got ready to party, and headed out into the mayhem (which was directly out the front door). A street away, the people were clearing the streets for the first night of the parade. We had to get something to eat, and decided on tapas. The lady explained that it was 15 euro each for ...

... de de faire du camping et de la photo. Par ailleurs, était organisé un petit tirage au sort avec des lots et j'ai gagné un poncho. Je leur ai dit que ça tombé pile le jour de mon anniversaire et ils m'ont chanté "Feliz cumpleaños". Touchant et bizarre de la part de gens que tu connais pas. Quelques heures après une sieste débutée vers 15h, Hicham et moi allâmes à Alicante pour voir le match Barça-Madrid dans un bar (voici la raison pour laquelle j'ai décidé de ...

... plus de taurine dans le sang que de globules rouges. - Les glaces sont pas chers ici. - Je déteste toujours autant faire la vaisselle. - J'ai découvert un nouveau gel génial: " Fructis fixation extrême Hard' " - Le cinéma ici c'est moins cher mais ça craint de voir des films américains doublés en espagnol. - J'ai échoué à ma première tentative d'épilation des aisselles. J'ai fait une excursion en catamaran avec l'université et on a fait un peu de plongée avec tuba. C ...

Sorry that this has taken so long to update. But as you may have guessed a lot has happened since my last entry and I plan to start writing more about it now. We will start with my Spring Break in SPAIN!!! Angela and I headed out to the Costa Del Sol together to Alicante to spend some quality time on the beach. Alicante itself was beautiful and our hotel was only a short walking distance form the beach. It was hot ...

... good map reading is not essential very straight route. We found the campsite very quickly, this is Joanne's sisters caravan it is on a lovely site just outside Benidorm, there are other caravans to rent you may think it is weird to stay in a caravan in Spain but i would have said that before trying it out. you have all the mods cons TV, aircon, fully fitted kitchen, plumbed toilet. A great local to see all round the area.
