The show was at 10pm every night so days were free for hanging out on the beach or cruising around Benidorm. I often went for walks up to a little stone fort on top of one of the hills and would sit in seclusion on the edge of a cliff, look out at the ocean and think or meditate. 'Home' was on the 17th floor of Hotel Bali, the tallest hotel in Europe, and my corner room had a more than 180 degrees view which included sunrise, sunset and the whole of Benidorm. Despite the great view I missed my daughter and girlfriend immensely at times - a month can feel like eternity when you're away from loved ones.

If you ask people in Benidorm where to go out at night everyone will asnwer 'Penelope'. We had a few great nights there as well as the club right next door. One weeknight when it was a bit quieter we ended up showing the gogo dancers some acrobalance stunts and had a great laugh with them. The club offered to book us for an ad lib show on the weekend but their offer wasn't really viable.
