Time for a breather

Now that the temperature is cooling and the summer season is over I have a chance to add a new post.
The Costa Blanca is a lovely place t o holiday and the season has seen hundreds of holidaymakers come and go which is obviously great for us as a company and for our owners, however its a twelve hour day and seven day a week job so we dont actually see any sun, sand or sangria. We had been hoping to take our little Ellie on her first holiday this summer, only a drive down to the Costa Del Sol for a change of scenary as we didint want to fly with her until she is a year old. We was hoping June but it was late September before we got a chance and even then it was only for 3 days so we decided on Costa Almeria as it is closer. What a lovely place Roquetas del Mar is, a lot quieter then we are used to but lovely clean beaches and some arid landscape on the drive down, bit scarry when our sat nav sent us up a mountain but great views from the top. When you work in Spain, especially office based you can forget where you are when most of the people you talk to are Brits, it was nice t o see more of the country which is something we havnt done yet but we are making a concious decision to explore more during the colder months while we have the chance.
