Boaters and Chihuahuas In Mojacar......

It's been pretty busy in our little paradise of Mojacar.

Elaine has a choice of a roof terrace with glorious 360 degree views and two huge decks with equally lovely views (and comfortable seating), but she prefers to sit on the doorstep to study Spanish (with her dog!) ...


Last week we had a visit from some Australian friends who were checking out the area for a possible winter escape.  They are living in the UK at the moment and the winter is killing them ...


Four more boaters arrived to escape the winter for a month or so and who can blame them?!!  The weather is fantastic, the food and wine are good and cheap and of course we are here!! 


We have been really welcomed into the Mojacar community and are doing our bit!!
We are looking after a couple of lovely little Chihuahuas until a forever home can be found for them. If you fancy a couple of adorable little dogs drop us a line, they must however go as a pair ...


They have settled in a treat.   We would be so tempted to have them ourselves but we still have a few things to sort out back in the UK, so we cannot commit ...


We have been taking the dogs on our prom walks.  One is fine and one very nervous but every day he is getting more confident ...


I took this pic a couple of weeks ago whilst we were on a prom walk.  The two little guys on the left hail from Holland, our two in the middle from Oz and the boy on the right is from Canada ...


We are still loving life in Mojacar.  It really feels that we belong here and so far everything has fallen into place just perfectly, especially getting the villa (touchwood and all that!).

In saying all this we will be heading back to the UK on 27th January to get the MOT on the van, get an MOT on Elaine, sort out our goods in storage (so they can be shipped to Spain) and to get the little Citroen C3 all fired up.  I will come and pick the C3 up at a later date and drive it down to Spain, where it will become our little runabout.  The motorhome is just to big to drive around as a daily transport!
