Well, the good weather is still with us and today we have
had sunshine from when we got up until it got dark a short while ago. I went
off on a led cycle ride to Altea along the coast a little way, returning via
Albir where we walked to visit a market on Sunday. Tonight we have a quiz on
site so we are to go to that and see how we get on. As we are spending more
time at this site it is growing on us so I am sure we will return to the area
at some time, who knows when.
We came joint second at the quiz and won 3 Euros which,
split between the six in the team didn't cover the beer but helped a little.
Thursday saw us on a walk to the Faro (lighthouse) at Albir.
Situated on a headland overlooking the bay at 112m above the sea it gives commanding
views across the water which was a lovely turquoise colour in the sunshine that
we experienced. Although we had been told beforehand that the walk was about
three miles each way someone had a GPS on their phone which told them we had
covered four and a half miles when we reached the Faros so probably about ten
miles by the time we returned via a meandering route. A lovely walk though.

Thursday night has a whist drive on site that we intend to go on and try our
luck. Hopefully there won't be too many serious players there otherwise we may
just upset them with our play.
