We both slept not the best last night due to late meal and Noels concerns that perhaps something he had eaten and enjoyed would come back to haunt him and so was perhaps not sleeping as soundly as he would have liked. Oh well that's the way it is.
Today are we taking the Tourist Bus trip which does a tour of all the notable high spots of the town and the really good things is leaves from a bus stop just behind the Hotel and we could leave the Hotel and be on the bus in minutes except that the reception says that although their a bus schedule it never operates by it and you may have to wait a while. So we had to wait about twenty minutes and we could not work out of the was the late 10.45 bus or an early 11.15 bus but who really cares. The tour lasted about 1.5 hours and it is the usual hop on hop off open top double decker bus used by many city tour companies. We had visited Zaragoza in 2011 when on a similar route to Moraira and so we did not as many photos as from the bus they don't always come out well.
We did a complete round trip to see where it went and then stayed on until it reached the famous cathedral and square where we got off and wandered around for a while considering where to go and what to eat. We needed something and wanted to ensure that all was safe for Noel and there was a place with a huge buffet which looked ok but when we went inside and waiting to be seated we noticed some excellent looking Tuna, egg and tomato rolls and we both agreed that would do us a a full meal lunchtime is unusual for us. So we had a couple of beers and sat outside in the square watching the world go by and their was a large table of priests drinking and smoking and a couple of them looked like they might keel over and pass away any month as they looked so old also with one rather large, lets say very fat, was red faced, blood pressure perhaps?
We re-joined the bus and headed back to Hotel and by this time it was around 32 C and rather warm and so straight in to the shower and then a little rest before preparing for the evening. When loading the car back in UK Noel forgot to put the base for the Garmin Sat Nav in the car and so when using it Jennifer has to hold it , we do have the car Sat Nav but the data is five years old, and so a number of places we have been are not on it, and so by working our way around Amazon Spain we appear to have ordered the right stuff, we shall see what happens, and hope it goes to the correct address.
The Hotel is situated as part of the 2008 EXPO and is a large area containing many buildings, parks and aquarium and all the building are a different shape. not sure I like it , but in the hot weather it looks Ok but guess that in the cold it would be a wet and windy area..
Tonight we will go to café for dinner and then plan an early breakfast and head off to our next Hotel in a place Alarcon where we stay in a Parador and ex castle..
