CAMPING PARQUE TROPICAL -ESTEPONA

Sunday 9th December.
It was warm and sunny as we got up so we got ready and went over to Manilva to see Mano and Ann,they where having a at home day as they waited for some phone calls so we watched some English TV including The X Factor for the first time this year! On the way back we picked up a spit roasted chicken for supper with some salad .
Monday10th December.
Over the weekend Brenda has been writing all the xmas cards so we went down to the marina and posted them all-watch out for yours! We hope that we have not missed anybody-if we have sorry!!
In Estepona along thr front and in the main street all the xmas lights have been put up so we will go down one evening to see them,over here they go to town with the lights and particulary on the palm trees and on the roundabouts they also use hundreds of Poinsetia's which we saw for the first time last year at the same time in Madrid,In the evening we had Pork chops from the English butchers
with caramelised Apple slices.
Tuesday 11th December.
Tuesday was a shopping day so we went to the old market in Estepone and then on to the Hypermarket on the way back where we spotted for the first time a small tapas bar just outside the entrance and we had some lovely spicy goulash and savoury fried potatoe's as the owners are German.We had for supper pan fried fillets of Halibut with green vegatables washed down with a bottle of the local vino blanco!The picture below of the xmas Dolphins is the background for the small card inside the xmas cards which is our first and not very good attempt at printing!!
