Day 11 Alicante

by ukcruiseguy @ 2008-06-27 - 17:44:34

Now, I’ll let you into a little secret. When I first met my wife, over 15 years ago, the first real holiday we ever went on was to Benidorm. Now at the time I knew nothing about the place but very quickly got to grips with the place and we ended up going back about half a dozen times. We really enjoyed the place and if we didn’t like cruising then I’m sure we’d still be going there. So when we found out that today we could take a day trip to Benidorm, we jumped at the chance.

We set off nice and early from the ship for a 45 min coach ride. We were dropped off right in the centre of Benidorm and had mostly the whole day to explore on our own.

We visited all the old haunts, stopping for a beer each time!! – Then we hade some lunch and a little shopping before a few more beers. One thing I could not get over was the number of motorised scooters there were, you know the type used by people with walking difficulties. They were everywhere on the roads, on the pavements in the shops and bars.

Nevertheless, we had a great time and were a little sad when it was time to re-board the coach back to the ship.

Tomorrow it’s Gibralta.
