Pinar San Jose - Dec 09

Well we arrived in rain - got stuck in the wet sand - dug out and settled down for the winter!
We haven't done a lot since we've been here - we've actually been quite tired! Looking back over the year we've been on the go ever since we left here in March! The longest we've stayed anywhere is 4 weeks and most of the time it's been a week or even less - SO - we needed a rest! We've festered for the last couple of weeks!

It's lovely to be back on this campsite - the family who own it are so friendly and helpful - there's a nice bar and restaurant - a super supermarket run by the lovely Mila - one of the family. We had such a lovely welcome off everyone when we arrived - after spending 2 months here earlier this year we were made to feel like old friends when we got here! It's a lovely tranquil place - only about 9 vans on here at the moment with plenty of space between us!

We've been down to the beach a few of times and went out in the van one day last week into Conil De La Frontera. The council has put up no parking signs for motorhomes on the big car park on the prom so we can't do what we like to do which is drive the van into Conil - park up - do the shops - go for a walk - have lunch etc! We'll have to investigate how we can still do it!
Stuart and Jake are arriving on Thursday for 2 weeks hols - can't wait to see them!
We're hiring a car for the 2 weeks so will get out and about a bit more - I'll need another long rest once they've gone home!

Christmas Day is promising to be fun - we're having a huge lunch party on site - 18 of us! All in an awning for lunch! Thanks to Elaine and Trevor who are going back to UK for Christmas and loaning us their HUGE awning!! We're all doing our bit towards the lunch - I'm making some roast spuds, braised leeks and whisky trifle! Watch out for the photos!!!!
