The fire was almost out when we woke this morning, so we went out for a long walk back to Jaspers favourite beach. While the pups played in the surf and chewed sticks, Mark and I picked over the beautiful pebbles and quartz.
Jasper was last off the beach and evidently didn’t want to leave, but I’d promised him more beach time later in the day. There are mutual options along the way.
True to my word we drove along the coast into Andelucia, first stopping in the hilltop white village of Mojacar for lunch before driving on to the Arrecife de las Sirenes.
With steep cliffs and jagged rocks we felt our clumsy pups might do themselves an injury so opted to take them down to Cala del Corralete beach. Jasper was still tired from this morning but they all enjoyed a potter.
This evening we are back in society parked near the bars and restaurants of El Palmeral in Almeria. Ernest is nosing out the window at the steady stream of joggers, dogs and cars passing by.
I’m already thinking about tomorrow’s brunch options, I need to make the most of my caffeine having signed up for the WaterAid – Just Water Challenge in January. I’m still not sure how I’m going to cope without my daily: two coffees, several cups of tea and bedtime hot chocolate…hmm plain water replacement yum. However its for a great cause and will do me good. Plus my friends Heike, Mia and Paul are sharing the challenge with me, so that will really help with motivation. Feel free to drop us a sponsor if you are eager (challenge starts 1st Jan). My hubby is going to hate my grumbleweed caffeine headache withdrawal…sorry man!
