Another beautiful day in sunny Spain. It has been an amazing trip, great friends, food, accommodation, and sights and sounds of Spain. Today we did different things, Behnke's laid by the pool till it was too cold and they went on a walk by the sea. Tom and I walked to marina to do some last minute shopping and enjoy the area.
We stopped for our usual coffee/tea and goodie, so did the Behnke's but at a different spot
. We are all going to miss these special fresh treats in the morning. Guess I will have to learn how to make some different treats, that will be fun.
It is fun to people watch as you stroll along, just like back home there are all kinds that make up this wonderful world. Nobody looks different until they speak and then you realize you are not in Kansas anymore. Tom figures that Spain does not have as diverse a population as Canada.
All of us saw WAY MORE BIG SHIPS SAILING TODAY than we have seen since we got here. Not sure if it is because you can see along way off shore because of the rains or not. The locals were very happy for the rains, it has not rained since April around here, or so we were told.
When we got back we had a Sangria with the Behnke's on their deck and then I packed up my suitcase. Tom had a little nap and is now thinking about packing LOL. We are going out for supper in about 30 minutes and then it will be crunch time to make sure we have everything ready to go. We get picked up tomorrow morning at 7:00am. We fly from Malaga to Paris on Air Europa AF5057 then we fly Air France AF0356 from Paris to Toronto then West Jet WS0441 from Toronto to Edmonton. We get to Edmonton tomorrow evening at 8:00 pm
Then we are driving to LLB and Behnke's are spending the night with James and Emily and home Thursday to LLB.
IT HAS BEEN A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY BUT WE ARE ALL LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING HOME. Sharon can't wait for a long hot soak in a bath tub, and we can't wait for our own beds.
SURE HAVE MISSED OUR KIDS AND GRANDKIDS, CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM SOMETIME SOON
HUGS

You all have had a wonderful experience despite the rains which was desperately needed by the locals.There is nothing like travelling to see how the other side lives. and to know there are good people in this world regardless how some of the fanatics act!!
I know. you are missing home but will think of this trip with fond memories!!
When are you starting another new blog?? I really enjoy them.Drive safely lol
