Day 188 - 03/11/19 - Altea, Spain

We made omelettes for breakfast, and then drank coffee outside whilst watching all the Sunday morning cyclists ride up into the hills - there were so many of them 🚵‍♂️

As Chris packed his bucket away, he began to sing “I have a hole in my bucket” - I did tell him to stop messing with it, but it just grew bigger 🙈

We said another “Bye for now” to Vicky and Dave as we left Victoria Station - will definitely pop back in when we pass this way again.

We went in search for a new leisure battery for John and Iris.

Typical that it had packed in so soon from leaving the campsite, but lucky that we were in familiar territory to go to get a replacement. Chris had rang a few places, but they were quite expensive here compared to England, however we did manage to get one at a large supermarket, which we were surprised to find open on a Sunday, even more surprised to find that they sold batteries.

I made us all tea/coffee back at the Motorhomes in the car park, whilst John replaced the battery. Everything seemed fine, so we headed for Altea for the night. We had decided to stay fairly local in case there were any problems with the battery.

We had planned to park up by the marina to have a look at the boats, but there was a sign to say no parking for Motorhomes, so we moved on. We found a large parking area where we were able to park up and also stay the night.

We then had a stroll along the sea front. It was quite cloudy as we started our walk, but the sun just shone on the rock and it looked beautiful .

We stopped for a drink and something to eat, before heading back to the Motorhomes for a night cap - even though it was still quite early.

We had a lovely FaceTime chat with our family back home - it’s fantastic that we can keep in touch this way, actually seeing them on the screen is just wonderful🥰
