In February we had a few days out visiting our friends Mike & Brenda in Benidorm. Benidorm was quiet and quite beautiful in the warm sunshine, we had a lovely walkaround the old town, introduced Mike to tapas for lunch and downed a few beers, as expected!
We experienced a night out on “the strip”, a road famous for it’s bars, british cafes and takeaways and cabaret style night clubs, starting the night with pie and chips for dinner, following up with watching three “artistes” singing Rat Pack songs, and topped off by an hour watching a hilarious comedian from Bradford. He was so funny, we had stitches by the end of the evening; however the highlight had to be the drunk woman serenading the “artistes” on stage afterwards singing Take That songs!
Mike confirming that he had organised a “surprise” for David….. 
after David had lied and bragged that it was his “birthday”. Yeah, right!!

The next day we took a drive up the mountains behind Benidorm to a small village called Guadalest, hiked up to the castle ruins, had lunch in the square, and gawped at the amazing azure coloured reservoir behind the village. Even the water coming from a natural spring, into a trough in the village, was blue, it tasted so fresh and was freezing cold!
As we headed out of the village on the opposite side, we came across a small motor museum, a private collection of motor bikes, some cars, scooters, bikes and other memorabilia. Such an amazing place, fascinating and full of historical items.
And to top it all off, the Museum had a shop selling local produce, fresh oranges, honey, cream, olive oils and lavendar products.
Looking awesome as ever beautiful pics keep enjoying your memories x
