... and the marina are excellent. We took the opportunity to try out the Tapas at one of the sea front restaurants. The food was excellent and great value for money.

We both agree that as we had brought Lucy along that we could have stayed over in the Camper but we had put a casserole on in the slow cooker at home so we had to go back...We are definitely revisiting Mazarron and will be staying over next time.

... enough to tick the box: `went to a nuddist beach´. . . I´m not mental . . and I do not care how much I care.

When we returned Tracy gave us some bad news about our cycling to come. Firstly, there was a heat wave due (last year it hit 57 degrees in land), there is a windy season, and we were about to cross the siera nevada (a massive mountain range). Apparently Spain is the second most mountainous country in Europe. This along side the fact that I had ...

... seen his face, there was no emotion, there was only shock. Alex was almost sick after taking a look. I suppose, on the plus side, maggots are high in protein and we had been doing alot of cycling. Swings and roundabouts.

When we finally arrived at Tracy´s we where greeted with a crate of beer. Perfect. After we were a little drunk we went on a mission for an internet cafe. The mission ...

Waking up late and having a lovely breakfast of old biscuits sets you up perfectly for riding on the motorway. The thing about cycling on the motorway is everybody driving on it wants to beep you. Why? i ask. Are you truly concerned for our safety? if so dont panic us by f-in beeping next to us! We are already dealing with loads of glass on the hard shoulder, articulated trucks flying ...

... these guys on a corner smoking pot therefore we decided we would ask them for directions. They were so nice they got in their car and asked us to follow them and took us straight to the condo where we were staying. The condo was O.K. but not well maintained, The air condition wasnt working,
a lot of weeds at the entrance and the patio in the back. We had to clear the weeds in the front because there were ...

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 ...

... still setting up there stands.

We walked through and they sold everything you could think of clothes, electrical equipment, CDs, DVDs fruit and veg etc. The smell of cooked chicken which was being sold made me very hungary. We decided to walk through the fruit and veg section and there was lots of older spanish women with there granny trollies lol. It was very packed walking through the fruit and veg section and you had to push your way through.

We found a food stool which ...

... next day Fred took me to the beach in Alicante. The Mediterranean is really beautiful even when it´s surrounded by dry desert! We relaxed on the beach, and I even got a massage from a Chinese lady who approached us with a reflexology chart. I felt like a princess! On Sunday my flight was supposed to be at 10:30 am, but it ended up being at 10:30pm!! I went to the airport 12 freaking hours early! Instead of just hanging there I ...

... that even the rest of Spain does not know. There was a woman on "Mira Quien Baila" here (a game show where semi-famous people dance with professionals to win money to donate to those in need) who was from Granada. Not only was my senora impressed with how she danced, she was impressed with how much weight she had lost. She told me that this woman was also taught to speak before the show, because Andalusians cannot speak correctly. It was actually VERY ...
