Costa Brava - Palamos

An unusual place to eat is this 'floating restaurant' at Palamos.
Most of the main course dishes are fish as you can well imagine...but a fabulous place to eat!

Gibraltar - Barbary Apes

The Barbary Apes on the rock of Gibraltar,

it is said that once the apes leave Gibraltar so will the British....

....not much chance of that then!

Donkey Taxis of Mijas

Pictured here are the taxi donkeys of Mijas, where some of the streets are so narrow its not possible to get round by car.
So one way for the tourists to travel is by donkey!




Also in Mijas, the photo below shows one of the colourful gardens.
All the residents take great pride in their properties, by decorating their gardens and balconys with flowers all year round.
So with the small town always looking its best, this brings loads of tourists to town...from which they will all benefit!

Costa Del Sol - Storm

Three photos showing the rough sea battering the harbour wall of Benalmadena during a recent storm.

Andalucia - Mijas

One of the steep narrow streets in Mijas, not the easiest place to get about...
... but well worth the trip up into the hills to see this beautiful white washed village!

Unusual Bendy Tree!

This unusual tree can be seen in Lloret de mar outside the chicken restaurant 'La Campana'
weaving in and out of the metal grill on the window!

Costa Brava Sky

This photo is just how the sky looked over Fenals at 5.30pm this evening.
It has been like this for the last 2 nights, looking very stormy but the weather has been very good for the time of year!
Daytime temps have been 22º.

Feeding Time!

The fish in Benalmadena Marina being fed... one of the cafes sell bags of dry bread for 1€ so you can feed the fish!

Granada, Malaga or Seville?

Which way shall we go now?

Gibralter Port

Two photos showing the port at Gibralter on a dull and cloudy day.



When the skys are clear the coast of North Africa can easily be seen across the Staits.
