Spanish Coast & PortAventura with Derek & Jen


We arrived at our favourite hotel and organised for dinner and a night of music and dancing that was very much the order of the week ahead! There was some fantastic line dancing every night that we all enjoyed! Many friends were made on the dance floor during our stay.
Our first day was spent exploring Salou with its many shops and bars. We walked along the promenade for a while, but although bright it was very breezy. After lunch out we went back to our hotel and played pool and table top football. Those that were brave enough managed a dip in the lovely swimming pool.

The next two days we set out for the PortAventura theme parc. We had a great two days of rides and shows in the beautiful sunshine. Some of the rides were wet, some scary and most were just plain enjoyable! We visited the very funny Wild West show, a bubble show, a brilliant musical & dancing show, a Polynesia dancing show, a tropical bird show and an evening parade of characters.
In between a couple of restful days of shopping for presents and just relaxing within the resort of Salou we went for a day trip to Barcelona.  It was another lovely day and we strolled down Las Ramblas taking in the atmosphere. We saw the port area and visited a beautiful square where we managed to get a pair of nice policemen to pose with Beckie. It was impossible to walk past one of the shops as it had the most marvellous ice creams, all just needing to be tasted!!!  
Our holiday just seemed to fly by and no one really wanted to go home....in fact it was suggested that we stay another week or two, but unfortunately there was a plane to catch!
