The story of our adventure in Spain



In October 2002 we purchased a holiday flat in Guardamar on Spain's Costa Blanca - not far from Alicante and Torrevieja and we try to spend a good part of the year in Spain.

This blog hopefully will contain our thoughts and impressions of Spain - the good and the bad and lots and lots of photographs of not only Guardamar but the rest of Spain as we eventually get to explore it.

Guardamar -No parade without a band !

We've recently had the Moors & Christians fiesta here in Guardamar and the parades are packed with bands .

The music always brings back memories of Spain - somewhat plaintive and always very loud.



Bands can be found in every small town and city throughout the Valencia region

These drums can certainly make a loud noise - enough to waken the dead !



He looks happy - big grin or is he fighting for more breath ?


Starting to get tired ?
