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.

'Experiencia Espantapitas' in Terreros
Saturday, August 30, 2008 @ 3:04 AM

This weekend see the 9th 'Experiencia Espantapitas' taking place in Terreros. My understanding of this is a music, arts and discussion festival for indie music. On the south end of the town (out past the Calypso) an area has been made for all the campers and there are hundreds of tents there with more dreadlocks on show than I've ever seen before. I think this is a festival that moves around Spain, I don't think it's here every year.

The arena has been built at the other end of the beach next door to Pepa's and the festival is running tonight and tomorrow, yesterday being a rehearsal day. We can hear the music up at the villa so anyone living on Calas del Pinar (where we are buying) will be getting a rousing free rendition as they are very close to the action, and it's currently 1.30am and still going on.
