Discovering a new life in Costa Almeria

Having made the decision that full time work really is bad for your health,my husband convinced me that we should get 2 puppies and retire early. What I hadn't anticipated was that retirement would see us in Almeria, in southern Spain. This is our story from making the decision to move to our life here. For more posts read the full blog at http://relocatetospain.blogspot.com. What I hadn't realised was that I wasn't ready to retire so after 2 years we are back in the UK. However, when I am finally ready to retire - Spain is still in the mix.

February is Carnival month in Águilas
Friday, February 13, 2009 @ 3:52 PM

I've not posted on here for a while although my main blog http://relocatetospain.blogspot.com has all the updates from Christmas, New Year and the rest but for anyone in the Águilas area, I thought you may be interested in the details for the Regatta and Carnival's coming up.

This weekend sees the regatta on Sunday and then next Thursday (19th) sees the start of Carnival week with processions each night for a week culminating in the Seizure of Don Carnal in the Plaza de España from where he is led to the Poniente Beach where he is executed by fire, followed by a magnificent fireworks display marking the end of the Carnival.

Full list of events and times are posted on my main blog.
