Day 80 - 18/07/19 - Benidorm, Spain

We couldn’t leave the area without paying another trip to the flea market. We went with our neighbours who took us a different way and we got to see lots of fruit trees, and new views.

We had a look around the market, and Chris eventually gave in, and brought some new bath towels. Before we started in our journey, we brought some micro fibre towels, as they took up hardly any space and dried quickly, which was ideal for the Motorhome. However, the reason they dry so quickly is that they don’t dry you so don’t really get wet 🙄. So we have been drip drying for 79 days - not anymore 😊

We then had a drink while we listened the Irish singer. The waitress remembered us from the other week - especially Chris, and she came straight over to us to see if we were alright, and had a little stroke of his neck 🥰. After a beer we tried the sangria - not realising it came in pints !

The “dancer” arrived a little later today, but still did a good turn - she really looks like she loves life and enjoys herself doing what she loves. The more ‘professional’ dancers did their turn again, and we stayed to see their whole performance this time.

I can’t remember how we got onto the subject of Crissy Rock who featured in the programme Benidorm, but our neighbour mentioned how Crissy’s biography was such a good read, although quite sad. This is what a small world it is, the chap who wrote the book with Crissy, is Ken Scott who we met in France while he was part of a group of 4 cycling the 1000k Camino Challenge ! Obviously I passed him the feedback and agreed to get a copy to read myself, making sure I have a box of tissues to hand.
