Today we drove to Alicante airport and dropped John off.  He was having to flying back to England after his mother’s great friend had died very unexpectedly leaving us and Carol.

Guadalest

Guadalest tourist trap

On the way back we (ie Carol) negotiated a number of roundabouts out of Benidorm at La Nucia on the way to Guadalest.

Guadalest is a hill top fort and village with wonderful views down the valley towards Benidorm.  It’s a pretty village, a bit touristy, but still well worth the visit.   Beneath the village there is a man made lake.  I do wish the Spanish in these towns spent a little more money trying to hide away their power cables and TV aerials.  There was one street, which looked quite nice, except for the plethora of cables.

Back home again for a late lunch on the terrace in sunshine.  R&C did a spot of gardening until it turned chilly.
