2 February 2017 Calpe Mar Calpe
A good run this morning managed to get out and back on a 30 mins run before the people in a seafront cafe had drunk their coffee, a year from now it will probably be closed when I pass coming back! Walkabout in Calpe in light rain picture of lovely modern church below click image for larger picture.
Arrived Calpe Mar. Settled in very well after a few days of wet, windy weather but this is the place to be on occasions like these, on a purpose built campsite with tarmac roads and non-muddy pitches.
Darian-Moraira
Started doing our usual Calpe thing exploring the years changes, cycling to Moraira, started running again, walk to the Ifach and lots of shopping. Weather now improved and both now in shorts. Lots of coffees with friends Linda and Ray from Harrogate.
Maureen-Calpe
Treating ourselves to a restaurant meal tomorrow with family. Looking forward to it.
The Building below an apart-hotel was only 17 floors last year now 30 floors.
Managed to get booked into Calpe campsite for a while so we can watch and enjoy the rain in comfort. Very wet n windy arranged to meet friends for coffee !!!! Maybe tomorrow.
A lovely couple of days again in Valencia didn’t manage a cycle it was too cold 1C overnight with snow flakes and hail.

A local girl was telling us it has not snowed here in 60 years. The weather is certainly a bit strange. Had a walkabout in the backstreets again looking for different things off the tourist trail.

WOW what a drive down, high winds, sleet, rain, gosh. A short journey, arrived 1000, booked in, then drove down to Calpe to see if we can get on Calpe Mar, Yes we can arrive tomorrow,. Called in to See Linda, and Ray, then back up to Denia. for some more wind, rain and high seas. They had snow yesterday, first time since, 1983 the pictures were impressive glad we missed it. This was written so as to not let Linda get out of breath Bless……….

Poor reception getting hassle from a Dutch guy trying to get on site using a photo copy of passport !!!! A bit of shopping and then a cycle up to Orpesa on the old railway line.
