Welcome to my blog!
I've decided to set this up to share a little bit about the walks that we do, what books I read and basically our life in general. I intend to keep adding different links and information along the way, so please come back from time to time and see what there is, and feel free to comment on anything.

Girls Holiday!

I can't believe another girls holiday is over. It doesn't seem two minutes since we were boarding the plane to fly out to Ibiza. And now we're back. And I've been charging round ever since! 

We landed in Ibiza last Tuesday morning after quite a bumpy flight.

 

 
 
We landed to glorious sunshine and a lovely hotel. Our room overlooked the pool and we could also look out to sea. 


 We unpacked and wandered along the sea front to find somewhere for lunch. 

 

We found a lovely little cafe to eat lunch ....

 

....then headed back to our hotel for a rest before wandering out at night...

 
 

After checking the information we'd been given by the holiday Rep we decided to head to the Hippy Market on Wednesday as it's the only day it's on. 

 

We spent about two or three hours wandering round the colourful stalls, finding lunch, and generally mooching before getting a taxi back to our hotel. We then went up to the local supermarket and bought food for us to make our own meal that night. And then went out for dessert! 

 

The weather was a bit overcast on Thursday so we decided to follow the riverside path. It was lovely to walk round, taking us by the river.....

 



 




......then up towards a church with views out to sea.....

 

 

 
 

......heading back to the resort centre ....

 
 
It wasn't a hard walk, but DD and her Auntie ended up having a nap when we got back! We went out for the evening and found a nice restaurant, and while we were there the weather took a turn for the worse and it started raining. 

 

We had raincoats on and still ended up so wet! On the way back to the hotel the waves were coming over on to the promenade!! 

 

And then Friday morning started with blue sky ....


..... and we headed down to the marina .....

 
 
 

.......having cold refreshments in a lovely little cafe.....

 

.......before deciding where to eat out. We ended up heading back to the marina and a different restaurant. 

 

 


Saturday started off nice and sunny again and we used the bus to get us to Ibiza Town. 

 
 
We had a look round the shops and walked almost to the top of the hill .....

 

 

 

 

 


 
 
 


Time for refreshments! 

 
 
And then the journey back to the hotel ....

 

 


As it was cooling down in the evening I headed out to do my last day of the C25K programme. I went along the river and the beach before completing the training programme. Yay! Finally done it. And on holiday too! 

 

We had a last wander at night.....

 

.....then time to pack on Sunday morning and find a good lunch spot.... 

 

The coach picked us up in the afternoon and our flight got us back to the UK at 10.30pm, so none of us arrived home until quite late. 

DD was at college on Monday, while I've been busy loading and unloading the washing machine, shopping, and then back at work yesterday. 

The holiday seems so far away now already! 

Time to plan another one.........
