The well trodden path between the two has become a lot safer. The main road has bumps all the way down from the top traffic lights, there are now footpaths / cycle tracks on both sides. Also crossings at the Torreta road and Villasol gate.

Also, it seems that the Bar in Torreta is under new management, with only 2 of the waitresses left. We were there yesterday and shock horror they are NOT SELLING THE PINK STUFF ANYMORE.

Is that October or November? Hoping it’s November as our ferry isn’t until the 20th October.

Thanks for the update on the roads, it will make a big difference, do the cycle tracks go down to the market area?

October for Irene, going out for my sisters birthday. She's there 19th -26th.
All being well we are trying to come do a month in November in the van, otherwise we will fly out for the great Funsters birthday week celebrations.. :party2:

You should see the lovely footpaths paid for from the EU "pot".. pity they don't go anywhere and finish in the middle of nowhere. :rolleyes:

We noticed it on our trips into Spain a few years back , incredible roads from north to south and new tarmac roads between fields of oranges.

We haven't tried at Villasol yet, but no doubt it won't be long.
The cycle tracks go down to the Coconut turn off and they have fitted blue bollards on the right side of the road to create a footpath to the market.
They have also put red two way cycle tracks from the Torreta lights to the bottom of the Rincon right down the middle of the road :Eeek:

The bar staff at Torreta were different when we were there in May and June. The waiter is called Manuel and doesn't speak any English but is very friendly ?
Wonder if they had any floods recently ?

I was there in the summer and the place was full of Irish travellers, nightmare.
 
Villasol, you couldn't move for 19 plate range rovers and cussing degenerates all hours. I just picked the wrong week as have been before and it was all good. Location is spot on for a quick walk to the seafront
 
Looks like I will be seeing those Cycle paths earlier than planned. !

My sister was taken into hospital yesterday, nothing to serious but does mean she cant travel with Irene on the 18th. Silly cow didnt take any travel insurance and so cant claim and Irene can only claim 1/2 back less the excess and a load of paperwork just to get that..

So looks like a name change for £50 and Benidorm here i come.. Keep the beers cold, see you soon.

Marina Hotel.. In the middle of all the action.. :doh:

Irene made a comment about that she now has to sort her case and change some of her clothes because " I (me) like to go different places" ?? Still trying to work that one out...
Do women take different things on a girlie week than when going with their blokes ???

:reel:
