What another beautiful place you found; two lovely cities, Villa Joyosa & Althea, which both bookend Benidorm, & gives hope for lovely, smaller cities.
The meal looks absolutely delicious & amazing!
Impressive architecture certainly, but a tad overdone along such a beautiful coastline?! š¤
3 months agoVilla Joyosa seems like the perfect place to have a day full of joy & a restful one too!
The river ravine area seems quite lovely & good for an exploratory stroll.
The painted houses are delightful!
Sounds like your approach to Benidorm was the correct call; ā in & outā.
Great eye catching scenery on the Coast & along the way! Gorgeous, is only one word of many.
Andale!
Weāre puzzled by the same thing. How do they not realize the impact? Itās a mystery.
3 months agoGlad you had a nice day off. Those crowded beaches are crazy, aren't they. We saw that in Barcelona. It's hard for us to fathom that people still purposefully suntan.
3 months agoThe earplugs are a great idea. Even the smallest vehicle makes a tremendous noise.
3 months agoOur experience with the respectful Spanish drivers has been the same. On the very rare occasion someone behaved like the woman in the tunnel we assumed it was a tourist in a rental car. Probably a North American tourist š. We stop before tunnels now and put in earplugs. The noise really is tremendous and I feel calmer when it is muffled.
3 months agoThe roads & especially the bike lanes look fabulous to ride, & how encouraging that bikes are respected by other drivers! š š.
āElche to Alicanteā had some vivid memories for Terry, from when he was travelling there with some buddies, back in the day.
He will tell you all about that particular adventure , over coffee when you get back.
Andale!
An unusual feature for sure. At first glance, it seems to be a big awning, then you start to see the parts of the race boat, without its sails to identify it.
Interesting!
I bet thereās a good reason. :)
3 months agoSounded like a lovely day. The bike paths sounded and looked great.
3 months agoSpain is exceptional in driver courtesy. France isnāt bad, but Spain is better.
3 months agoInteresting that the sign is in English with no Spanish.
3 months agoWe had a laugh yesterday in Croatia when we saw a big sign painted on a boat saying "Dolphins Watching". A very understandable mistake but we laughed as we imagined dolphins busily watching us!

To me the maze of narrow streets was one of the real charms of Seville. Good for you scoring lodgings near the center of the action.
