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.

Alicante - " Once "


Here we are again in Alicante and in front of the "Once" kiosk.

"Once " raises money to help  blind people by selling lottery tickets. There are daily draws and the results are shown live on Quatro TV.

This Spanish foundation was founded on December 13th 1938 and is very popular with Spanish people. I personally find it a little difficult to follow the complicated rules.
