Lovely relaxing morning on Roses beachfront.

Walked, sat for an hour with Jonesy relaxing on my lap. What a great recovery he's made. Now for coffee.

FRIDAY 1ST May....Roses.

Enjoyed Le Barcares,
weather suggested cloud in Roses but we arrived to bright sunshine. Woke Saturday to lovely sunshine so weatherman tells fibs. Been coming to Roses for 37 years when we drove here with Tim as a 3 year old. It was starting to look a bit shabby about 15 years ago but in recent years,presumably to maintain the interest of French holiday makers it's gone through a bit of a resurrection. For that reason every time we visit Spain we drop in here. Now the May day holiday so quite busy. Will stay 3 days and try Tossa de Mar for a change.

Wednesday 29th Le Barcarres

Decided to have a couple of days at Le Floride and review the weather in spain. We've visited this sight several times and tended to pay the extra 5 euros on top of the ACSI rate for own sink,toilet and shower, but now they've made it an extra 20 euros we gave it a miss and parked close to the toilet block.Very quiet on our side of the site but other side busy with kids on holiday. Strange set up for easter holidays in this region. We like the heated pools on the site,the walks into town and the closeness of Lidl . However we did take not that this is a fabulous site for young families with loads of free activities. One pic ...the new free playground in the town.
