New Home for Hella and Dave (E) (Monday, 01/17/2011)
Weather: mist up very nice / Temp: 15 degrees / Wind: 1 to 2 HE
First time since we are here, find the campsite this morning in the fog, southern Spain for a rather unusual sight.
until noon starts to unravel this gradually.
is now the "new" bungalow supplied by Hella and Dave. We want this show not be missed. First, the old bungalow is removed.
The New
is already available and must be juggled through the winding roads to the property. But first be sure the floor beneath the bungalows still paved with stone slabs and so in record time of two hours.
Since any help valuable, even if we can only perform unskilled work.
Just in time before the new house will be delivered, the underbody is finished.
It is a real feat of the huge bungalow through the narrow streets to steer. A few scratches through the palm trees can hardly be avoided.
For spectators there is no need to be concerned, since such transportation is not every day.
Then finally comes the great moment when the bungalow is set on the prepared foundations.
Dave is glad when his new house is finite. Now it is "only" to join the connectors for power, water and wastewater.

Camping at Mar Menor (E) (Thursday, 1/20/2011)
Weather: nice / Temp: 17 degrees / Wind: 1 to 2 Bf .
has for a long time it rained in the night once again strong. This morning we received the other hand, already the sun again. From tomorrow it will be due to a strong current running south massively cool. For the next few days before we have maximum temperatures of only 10 to 13 degrees. Winter is definitely here in southern Spain hold catchment.
We expected to enjoy the last mild day in January and take the scooter to the "La Manga". Behind the big drawbridge (to kilometer 13), we turn to the lighthouse from a branch of the peninsula. At this easternmost point of "La Manga" We were never before.
The drawbridge can be seen from here still good.
A visit to the restaurants / cafes Paquebote "before the return trip a must of course not ;-)
applies since the beginning of January 2011, Spain in a general smoking ban in all public places. The new anti-smoking law creates in the media for hot heads (reader surveys, readers' letters, for example, in the Costa Calida news ). In reality, the conversion is going smoothly, at least here with us in southern Spain. We welcome the new regime and enjoy the first time the smoking veranda of the beach restaurants.

windsurfing on Mar Menor (E) (Friday, 01/21/2011)
Weather: cloudy to beautiful / Temp: 12 degrees / Wind: 3 to 5 HE
Francis and Mel this morning playing the "guinea pig". It blows a deep, obliquely onshore wind with 4 to 5 letter from the northeast.
Keith umriggen right at the beginning of a mast failure and has to.
Meanwhile Franz fueled almost solely by the "Pirate Bay".
The temperatures are anything but comfortable. With a maximum of 12 degrees today it remains cold winter. It cost us some courage as we go on the water clock at twelve. With the 6.0 or 5.5 m2 sail we jet nearly three hours over the "Mar Menor".
between, because of the wind slightly, so that I have on my 2.7 sail and a large 120 liter board needs to change. Franz has surfed enough for today. The next 6 days it is supposed to continue to give strong wind!
We still hold due to three clock. By late afternoon the sun sets through and it gets really nice. By clicking the "Mar Menor" but no more wind surfers can be seen.
It was after a long dry spell (14 days no high wind), despite the relative cold again a great surfing day :-)
