To the Med

Across 100 miles of olive groves. Then €5 worth of viaducts and tunnels on my first Spanish toll road - through the coastal ranges into Torremolinos. Safely ensconced in my luxury hotel room. And after an epic with the multi-storey hotel car park Sula is safely lodged too. Dancing starts tomorrow.

Today I managed a swim in the sea and beer with a view. Parakeets screech around the palms and the intensity of seaside tourism is mind boggling.
