Today was our (Roma and me) first day playing golf in the Terrazas de la Torre golf resort. We tried out our new golf clubs - unwrapping each as they were needed as we went along. We played nine holes - €80 for two, including a golf cart. We´ll play again throughout our stay. It´s a nice course, but tough for golfers of my standard. The fairways are narrow - accuracy off the tee is a must. There is a lot of sand dunes with very coarse sand - fortunately the course ranger told me that I could have a free drop from these areas. Otherwise I would have dropped shots on nearly every hole, and destroyed my new set of clubs on the stones.
The report is still very quiet - there are new arrivals at our apartment block, just one family. The photo was taken yesterday evening from the back of our apartment - one thing this place is not short of and that´s car parking spaces. There are hundreds of them around, but only a handful of cars. As you can see I had the pick of the car park for my bike!
Last evening we went to an Indian restaurant - excellent food at good value (€155 for eight of us). They even had an excelllent Spanish dancer to entertain us, though she did look a bit out of place in an Indian restaurant.
Today is the best day so far - temperature in the 30s and clear skys - I think some time at the pool is in order.
