Heading back to the coast Days Thirteen and Fourteen


After a terrific breakfast in a nearby sidwalk cafe we grabbed our bags, found the car, and said farewell to Granada.





 







"There's something wonderful about Sunday mornings in big cities", we both exclaimed as we easily guided the car back to the highway and headed east.

Spain's highways are terrific, very well-repaired and well-marked for the most part. The drivers and the road signs are something else, and a topic for a future post!









Our destination was a B&B just outside the city of Lorca, Los Sibileys , a country inn  set in the remote foothills outside the city and teeming with rugged natural beauty. Debbie and Steve, the owners moved here from England where Steve was a chef. The inn overlooks a beautiful pool where we enjoyed  good conversation and a glass of wine with a charming couple from Holland. That evening Steve put on a magnificent dinner for us and their good friends Kevin and Liz.












Next morning we enjoyed a brief walk around the area, seeing and hearing many birds and watching rabbits scurrying about.

And back into the rental car, headed for home.
Only got lost once!
