Holiday Snaps

Morning bloggers! It's lovely and sunny here in Lolo land, we are being so lucky with the weather aren't we. Boy it's gonna be such a shock when the real autumn weather kicks in! Anyways I digress, when I am meant to be showing you some holiday snaps of my recent, very wet, trip to Murcia in Spain.

I'll start off with our friends bar, The Pirate Bar, Playa Flamenca. They opened it 5 weeks ago and we went over to give them some support and see it in action.

They did all the interior out themselves. It is a rock music bar with live bands every Friday and Saturday night. The complex has lots of other bars/restaurants so competition is tough but they have the advantage of a very good position with views right out across the sea.

I even managed to get behind the bar and pull a pint! Except that it was more like a glass of froth :o)
Next we have this beautiful place we found in San Miguel for a meal one night aptly named the Castillo de Conesa. It doesn't have an extensive menu but the food was very good as was the service.
Outside of the restaurant the views are lovely. This is a manmade lake and there were swans, ducks, geese, and a dulux dog milling around.

Whilst sat drinking our coffee later these 4 little furry things came up to see us, so I took a piccie.....................what is with the eyes on the ginger one!!!!

On a brief trip out in between thunder showers down the front we stopped at a lovely icecream parlour where they make up characters for you, how cute!


This beautiful square is in the main town of Torrevieja which runs down to the sea front and the marina.


On our last morning there having breakfast by the sea and just look at that sky. What do they call it .... Sods Law I think :o)

Despite the weather it was a lovely break and great to catch up with our friends. Now I am just getting back into the swing of things over here, it always takes me a while! xx
