Off Topic Holidays

Mine would be more like this...

 

wow. Big boys toy!

 

I'm not suggesting I'd know what to do with it!

 

In all honesty, the dive boat I pictured, is about my limit. A week on it is something I have planned for ages only for it to fall through every year.

 

wouldn’t work for me, my gin would spill at that angle

 

You seem to have spelled miles per gallon wrong…

 

From the pictures I have seen of you, by the end of tonight, you will be at that angle anyway!!!

 

Fair point….well made x

 

we were lucky and had a few holidays in 2020. only had one cancelled and refunded. scotland just before lockdown then when it briefly opened up we did a corfu villa and a few week and weekend breaks in the uk. last year again greek islands twice but a lot of messing about with the testing and form filling, bike trips to scotland amd ripon ish. and 3 long weekend breaks. so the pandemic didnt affect us much. just lucky.

 

Our May cruise out of Galveston to ports in Mexico, Guetamala, and Honduras has just cancelled. We're looking for plan B. Maybe we'll go to Iowa instead.

 

You need to embrace the metric system Dennis.

 

So where do you go when you want advice about absolutely anything? Obviously Not606.
I'm after some recommendations for a 10 day break in the sun in May. Has to be by the beach and somewhere fairly quiet (ie old fishing village).
Mrs A is struggling with mini back fractures due to chemo this time last year. Therefore need to keep the journey as short as possible, especially the flight and the transfer. Ideally from Donny or Leeds but possibly East Midlands and at a push, Manchester.
Since we last went away in 2019, she has battled cancer twice so deserves a break and hoping to just relax in the sun on a sandy beach, possibly with water sports/golf close by for me and nearby bars restaurants. We like the Greek Isles, and looking for something similar, but nearer.
We're thinking The Algarve (which we know), but would like to look at Southern Spain.
Any recs?

 

Benidorm

 

Quaint fishing village?

 

Probably was 60 years ago??

Lanzarote,Playa Blanca in the South is very nice and no lager louts floating about down there.

 

If I could time travel, we could go long haul!

So is that Playa Blanca in Lanzarotte or Southern Spain? Think there's both?!

 

It's Playa Blanca in Lanzarote Some decent,centrally located hotels down there,lovely walk along the promenade and some nice restaurants.I haven't been to the Algarve for a long time but the weather's always decent there too.

Wherever you go,have a ball,you deserve it both of you.

 

Too far away
Southern Spain is nearer for askews mrs
