Market day in Torre del Mar

Thurs 3 April 2014
Had a sleep in again (because we can!)  Spoke to a welsh guy - Peter from Swansea who was walking his dog Woody- he has been on this campsite for 6 months to get away from the English winter! They do it every year and so many others we have talked to do too. There are a lot of Germans French and Dutch on this site.  It is so much cheaper to live here especially the food in the supermarkets and local produce. Walked into town about midday as the markets were on until 2pm, they were very big and everything you wanted or needed was there. Food clothing hardware souvenirs leather goods and some gorgeous white clothes (Mum I wanted to buy them all for you xxx). Slowly wondered around and had a coffee and read a local English language newspaper! then headed back before stopping for a beer along the promenade to watch a big storm in the distance. For about 2 weeks now we have been seeing so many orange trees lining the streets ( and as we are trying to save money!!!!! Ha ha)  we managed to pick some - they were lovely but a bit sour with a hint of lemon taste. Got back to Priscilla and relaxed before cooking our meal and checking out local walks in the area. Have had a reply from a Workaway host - sounds promising - will keep you posted. 
All different herbs and spices-we got pistaschios

Lots of leather goods

All this white stuff!!! Was better than it looks
