another view from the chinese junk taken off the shores of torremolinas... looks like only me on the boat! this is the table, although none of us left our free drinks on it for long, once empty the plastic cups were all over the place!

ah no.... there were other people on board afterall! here we are coming back into the marina... once we had disembarked(!) tony and i had the biggest italian icecreams... mine a tutti frutti... wonderful....

oh the steep streets of olvera! and how hot, that little bit of shade was all we had, the whole place looks bleached with heat...

we passed through arriete on the way in, a beautiful little town, very busy, lots of coaches, so i guess there must be much more to see on another trip in, but on our way back out we stopped at a little roadside bar/restaurant for lunch, we ordered a dish each, but when they arrived we realised they were tapas! so ordered another four dishes! we had those six plates two sodas and an ice cream for me to eat as we left, bill was only 7€ not bad eh!


now this above is setenil de las bodegas, bit had to see on here, but those are cave houses, bars etc built into the mountain... as i mentioned before it was market day and impossible to get into the town, as we drove up and past it, tony stopped so i could take some photo's, but next time, franco and i will go in and take some up close pics, an amazing place isnt it.

we have been without tv for so much of the past couple of weeks i havent even missed it! the signal came back yesterday i think, but we're not watching all the usual soaps anymore... i dont even miss them, tv is on now, but i am going to go up and relax on the terrace with some water and my book now.

its very hot again today... not complaining! just need one of those hats with a built in fan in the visor! just kidding! although....

Never give up on your dreams - follow your dreams...
