A lads day out!

Its way past my bedtime, but I promised the lads I would put up the photos from our day out at the beach.

Here at the fishing port in Santa Pola is Charles, Neil, Malcolm and Colin, who are enjoying their holidays with Finca this week.



After visiting the port they needed a shady place to sit and have a drink before playing "bowls" on the beach.



Colin, Charles and Stewart get things off to a good start.


Michael decided a swim was the best start to the game for him.



Charles soon followed suit and dipped his ankles!!!



Neil enjoyed visiting the harbour.



Everyone having a great time.














Charles relaxes at the villa after his day out.



Michael takes to the water



Stewart " you can't be serious" Mcenroe puts Warren to the test. Stewart only lost 2 balls in the neighbours garden, what a great forearm.



Trying their luck at basketball Stewart and Charles.



Charles looks pleased !!!!



A beautiful sunset at the end of a brilliant day.

Torrevieja trip by Helen David and James

Today the three amigos set off to explore Torrevieja's beach front and the surrounding area.

We had drinks on the sea front and had our picnic on the sea wall, as we watched the boats go by.

Afterwards we headed off into the mountains and explored around the lake then went to a pub for our tea.





James posing again, this time with Steve the pub landlord

Cave houses by Helen, David and James

This morning we were chatting about the cave houses in the mountains nearby.
We decided we would like to see some, so we set off with Warren to a place he knew up in the mountains near Elda where there is a lovely cave house right next to a waterfall.

'See that damp patch on the rocks behind us thats a waterfall that is!'

Not a raging torrent, but we will let Warren off it is July! and we were just as dry by the time we got to this point.



It was great to escape the heat of the day in the cool shade of the trees further down the mountain track
