Greetings From Benidorm

Going Dutch fashion wise.
They were at it everyday morning, weather permitting.
Indoor market cafe where Carmen was served a bacon and tomato sandwich. Hilda Ogden had a similar muriel in her living room, just saying. 

Back home tomorrow

  1. We need to find a set of 3 flying seagulls for the muriel to make it truly authentic.
    Safe travels!

  2. Thank you s Scarlet, it makes me nervous when I hear people say that before a flight, the last few days in Benidorm was freezing cold and overcast, pashmina weather, glad to be home, even though I'm nursing a cold. I'm often glued to the window when I'm flying over the South West in the hope of seeing you pegging out the washing, not this time sadly, it flew over over the Isle of Wright.

  3. The accidental letter s I wrote before your name, adds to the dramatic tension.

  4. Welcomer home. As usual, your travels sound so glamorous.

    1. Benidorm glamorous! *cackles* I had my hair cut whilst I was over there, the stylist asked me where I was from, so I told him, he stopped his clipping and waved his hand through the ether in a theatrical manner and said welcome to paradise, I didn't know what to say to that, so I just nodded and smiled sagely.

  5. What on earth are they doing out on that beach, so pale, so evenly spaced? Glad to hear you had a good time and made it back in one piece

    1. They are limbering up for an hour of intense physical exercise the workout music they play is a hoot, The Clap Clap song by the Klaxons to name one. Carmen only wanted me to go and join them, can you imagine that?

  6. I'm recently back from Florida myself and of course the Floridians think that 70 degrees is cold, but it is perfect for us Northerns and we had the pool and beaches mostly to ourselves! I'm sure we must have hurt their eyes with the pasty whiteness of our skin.

    1. The Spanish do too. You often see them walking the streets wrapped up in their winter warmers, shivering theatrically as they stroll along in 70 degree heat, whilst the Brits and other Northern European visitors are letting it all hang out on the beach.
