Friends at Vinaros

First to arrive for Christmas were Keith and Lynn, we had Christmas Lunch at the Bar, very nice if not traditional English roast Turkey.

Followed by music and the Wii dancing game, luckily nobody took a picture of me making a fool of myself.

Then Ken & Carole arrived and we had our own Christmas Lunch in their awning, if you try you can even find Brussels sprouts in Spain.

We all had lunch at the Bar on 29th December, cooked by a Dutch couple who did us all proud.

Followed by music by Manolo, And a good time was had by all…

When the weather improved in the New Year we all went to out for the day, we had lunch in Alcanar de Cases followed by a walk along the promenade.

Then at the end of January we went for lunch with Dave & Val in their local restaurant in Cervera

Then we walked up to their house in the village, the view from their balcony looks all the way back down to the sea at Vinaros.

The town house is on 4 floors, or is it 5,  with balconies on 2 floors.

And the next day as the weather was still good we went to Peniscola for lunch, followed by a walk through the old town to the castle.

057 059

The Carnival was as good as ever if a little cold, how the dancers cope with the cold in those skimpy outfits I don’t know, however I expect the copious amounts of alcohol being handed out probably helps.

Before Ken & Carole left for their return home, another couple of Geezers arrived

Reet & Del have since moved on as well and so we are left Geezerless for a while, roll on the arrival of Mike & Heather and any others that fancy some nice warm sunshine!!!
