Hola!

Got back from sunny spain yesterday. Had a great time apart from the Thursday and Friday when it rained, thundered and lightened none stop. Half of Spain flooded! The weather was great the rest of the time though, 28 in the day and 22 at night, i've come back with a not too shabby tan :-)

The flights and transfers we're pretty good, although i've discovered that i HATE taking off, tis the hurtling down the runway bit that i don't like :-(

The hotel was absolutly lovely! I can see why it's had such rave reviews. The apartments were massive and the pools were lovely and clean, although lots of irresponsible parents had taken their kids out of school, thank heavens for the adult only pool! I almost learned how to swim, and would have if it hadn't been for the bloody weather!

The hotel was quite far from anything though, we had a 10 minute walk down a massive hill to get to old benidorm where there were lots of lovely little restaurants to eat in. Didn't see any English people outside of the hotel, which was quite nice actually as we got to sample a lot of spanish culture. Didn't see any in the hotel either come to think of it as everyone was bloody Scottish!

Went shopping on Thursday and got the most gorgeous pair of shoes from Zara! Got a winter coat too and came out 120 euros lighter but hey ho, no one else will have the same coat as me :-)

Friday we went in a Man United bar (ran by scots, how ironic!) to watch the England under 21's. We also got to watch emmerdale and corrie before it started. Ha.

All in all the week was fab, it went really slowly too, it was great spending so much time with chris although it feels super weird now i'm at home on my own :-(
