Hope that you all had a blameless New Year...start as you mean to go on! Ours was suitably quiet. Went to bed before midnight and were all woken by the fireworks that went off next door (on the roof of the apartment block next to us). Euan very drowsily enquired if he was seeing lightning!
We have had a few more trips in to Marbella and found the charming old town with its wonderful white-painted houses, old churches and beautiful plazas with orange trees and fountains. Even more satisfying, for the children, was the toy shop with 50% off Lego. Birthday money got spent and then they were eager to get back to the van for an afternoon of building. We detoured to the main street for some exertion...there was a wii display with about 10 machines for trying out games. Joshua, Euan and I all had a shot dodging rolling logs and swinging balls and jumping from platforms! All in a tent so we missed the rain shower too!
Not much else to report. We have had some days at the van, sunbathing when the sun shines (me), also cleaning the van (Bill). Had the odd movie day when it was a bit rainy.
Moving on tomorrow hopefully to a place with wifi so we can keep in touch with you all. I think we are going back up the coast towards Valencia rather than round to Portugal. We figured that the extra driving for the same weather wasn't worth it! That and the infamous Portuguese driving...say no more.
