[QUOTE="filly, post: 1154507, member: 13818"] Hola! From Restaurante San Augustin in Villamalea. Veggies and a chicken paella … but I AM rather early so a beer. Met the chef, duly hatted, so it seems promising and is somewhat posh! ( has air/con and music but no telly! ) Have you noticed… no more newspapers in the bars. Anyway - some errant thoughts: - quad bikes are aplenty. They roar along and generally delight in sending up a cloud of dust. I hear them and give a wide berth making sure the wind is in the right direction! - any car which crosses the white central line in the roadway out of respect and concern for a hiker gets a thumbs-up and a wave from me. They know the dangers of loose stones and the effects of drag. They have probably walked.. - I nearly caused a ‘prang’ between three trail bikes the other day as I blissfully changed ‘ruts’ on an agricultural path. They had neither bells nor thought of whistling.. not even sure if they had brakes! Anyway. Loved Alcalá del Júcar and the Hostal of the same name. Gonzalez Soriano, owner, thoughtfully gave me room 101. Juliet balcony and terrace… giving on to a panaderia/bolleteria. No alarm needed as they duly fired up early so I was up by 5 am. Off before 6 am as 36 degrees forecast. … lunch is looking fab so far! Salad (unasked-for) duly appears, red wine and the gaseosa (that I am getting used to..) (Laurie - watch this space and hope you came here…!) The break yesterday has worked wonders on my morale and feet. Swimming in the river was sensational as you could swim against the current. Loads of lively kids. It IS a touristy and expensive place. The restaurant I should have eaten at was to the east, near the river at the far end of the ‘canal’ ( something like ‘El Chato’ at Euros 19.50 ) … smoked salmon platter with asparagus appears so PAUSE button … [ATTACH]150635[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
