Our week in Alicante is probably best described as a "transition" week. We arrived in this, not well know but large city in Spain that is a couple hours south of Valencia around 8PM after a long travel day. The kids did great but we were all exhausted. Went to bed and slept until about 2:00 the next day which catapulted us into "Spanish Time" and we were immediately ready to live the life of late nights and siestas. Nate Gavin and Mike started spanish class (at 11AM!) and Brock and I scoured the streets to find a place to get new cell phones, find the market and get situated. Our teachers were great, the kids loved the esplanade and the Mundo del Ninos but the city was bigger than we wanted and Nate and Gavin were eager to travel and see more places. We stayed in Alicante for a week, enjoyed the beach, the great teachers and the chance to get settled in an apartment before heading off to Granada.
Great report and nice photos!
It's always great pleasure to read your blogging
