Nerja - Semana Santa

Well, we're back here again for the Easter Parades...
We start this year with our local Nerja parades...and they're breathtaking. Surprisingly it's our first Easter out here but it certainly won't be our last.

We'll stay until May 20th, catching up with friends, the walking group and taking in the San Isidro fiesta before leaving....

...then it's sorting out the final details for our Iceland trip before collecting the new Elegance 570 from Swift....more of that later.

2014 Adventures


OK, we have the main adventures for 2014 sorted now...





All being well, this is it:


We may spend Easter in Nerja and at times in between we will do some more of our intermittent  tour of the entire UK coast in the Searcher. Perhaps we should do Scotland now...

...and, while we're on the Scottish question, thinking of our African tour, here's an interesting proverb:

Oh, happened across this  packet of sugar in a local restaurant. I used to collect quotes and Gandhi was top of the list then....I like this one..

If you need to, get onto Google Translate


Meanwhile, here's an image of Sadella, one of the many beautiful Andalusian villiages in our locality. It''s said to be one of the last Moorish villages to resist the forces of the Christian Queen Isabella.
