This was Rachel’s chance to have a free look around a proper
cruise ship, the recently docked 85,000 ton Costa Mediterraneo. We were walking
into town when she spied on the pavement what looked like a credit card. It
turned out to be a boarding card for the ship, but being the honest person she
is just returned it to security instead of blagging her way on board.
In the afternoon we were joined by the Ross’s in their
moto-kennel, it’s maybe not fair to say that they brought the Scottish weather
with them, but the build up of clouds did seem to coincide with their
arrival!
We had a lot of catching up to do, so Rachel rustled up
excellent chilli and we chatted the night away with a few bottles of red to the
accompaniment of Spain ’s
most notorious brass band, again!
We decided to stay Thursday night, so had a return match at
Neil & Kath’s van but no brass band accompaniment this time, probably due
to torrential rain that was coming down. During the day Rachel & I went on
yet another 5 mile walk around the lovely city bringing the total walked
mileage to 15!
It is now Friday morning and we are heading about 70 miles
east towards the hills above the Costa del Sol whilst
Neil & Kath go north towards Portugal
