Our girly days out ...
resumed with these FURTHER
fab outings
|
 |
|
In summer 2010
we had a day trips to
BEDAR, and
NIJAR and AGUA AMARGA
|
once again with
cameras... |
|
We were
now able to get out and about again after our long hot summer
and our first luncheon was to a white pueblo a few kilometres
inland from Mojacar called Bedar. |
|
BEDAR |
|
|
We
travelled from Arboleas across country and up through the hills
- Boy oh boy were the views incredible although I must admit to
having had my eyes closed on occasion as heights are not my
strong point. |
|
 |
Maggie, Annie and I
arrived well before lunch so that we could spend some time
exploring the steep narrow streets of the pueblo and as
this one is high up we got some spectacular
views and where on a clear day you can see the sea.
Unfortunately it was
rather hazy but you could just make out the line of the
Mediterranean in the distance.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Whilst
walking around we came across some adult exercise equipment,
something which many of the local villages around here have put
in place to hopefully help keep the older population fit.

...and Maggie
The three of us had a great 20 minutes or so trying out the
various bits of apparatus ...
testing our strength and flexibility
and we had such a good laugh.

|
|
|
After
all the excitement we went and had a Paella for lunch !
 |
 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NIJAR
and AGUA AMARGA
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
First
we called into NIJAR
a pueblo
specialising in the colourful
local pottery
|
where we managed
find one or two things to buy... |
|
But we
then dashed off to the coast to a lovely secluded bay south of Mojacar
|
|
 |
called
Agua Amarga.
|
|
 |
It is only a small place, a jewel
of a find with restaurants right on the edge of the beach.
We
slipped our shoes off and walked along the waters edge and the
sea was so lovely and warm.
Because it is the end of the season
there were a number of people about and the boats were bobbing
at their moorings but it was very pleasant. |
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
After
lunch we found it difficult to pull ourselves away
Girls further Trips 10
and it was 5
p.m. before we knew where we were and then had to dash home
again.
