It's stormy in Spain.

👍

Surprisingly quiet as well, once you manage to get their site to work.

I will be there in a couple of weeks. I’ve booked as they got a tad arsey last year about MoHo size and then decided they had no pitches they could offer! Booked an up to 12m pitch! 🤪

TBH, I’m only stopping there as it’s relatively convenient for Mrs Carpmart as she’s flying home for a couple of weeks! Also not too far from old town Malaga which is actually a very nice place to spend some time!
 
We have guests staying in our villa. They flew in from Ireland. They have had biblical rain for 1/2 term with their children.


I am flying in soon (on an aircraft 😀). Mrs. ET Off to Abu Dhabi for 5 weeks.

I’m off to our house in javea, then collecting mates from the airport a few days later, staying here for 3 nights for the fancy dress/festival

We are toying with the idea of staying for the festival. We have been playing hoky koky on Villasol,moving onto our third pitch tomorrow,and got to get off on the 1st November as the site is fully booked,then back on the 3rd for a while longer.

We are going to Camperlive in Finestrat for two nights,anybody been on there before?
 
We have just started with a bit of thunder & few spots of rain. either it is late or we have missed most of it.

You must have missed it it's hammering it down here .I think we've got off lightly judging by some of the posts on facebook that Ros has found from further west round Baza.😳

Unfortunately the front row only takes up to 8m, were 7.9m!, stayed with old van last year, not so good as further back with poor view, but as you say it is convenient for Málaga.

We will be there in a week or so, stayed there last year and very impressed, a brand new site, reasonably roomy, has small unheated pool, and raised deck area with lovely view of benidorm skyline.

The only issue is the very sharp entrance, take care as likely to ground

We cycled down there to book yesterday ,and I was a bit concerned about the sloping entrance,as I do have quite a long over hang.

Should be ok if you can cross at an angle, it is quite wide so should be possible.
 
We’re escaping to France today - the weather has been chasing us all up the coast.
We escaped Spain yesterday today driving through the Lot and Dordogne today sunshine and 23°.

It’s really blustery in Benidorm,and has been all day since the rain stopped this morning.
Normal service will be resumed tomorrow according to forecasters 🤞

But as we all know, they couldn’t forecast Christmas :rolleyes:
 
I had this alert on my phone earlier this evening. Strange as my xc weather forecast has the wind dying out tonight with tomorrow’s weather calm and warm?

Booked into Finestrat on the 1st for 4 nights, then Villasol for 5.
 
Prediction was it was almost going to be as bad as 2019. Thank fully should be blown out by tomorrow.
Flood gates are closed on the la torre resort streets and water diverted to golf course.

We will be back on Villasol next Tuesday for 8 days. Quite a few set up for the winter when we were there last week.
 
It’s the prospect of golf ball sized hail that scares me in those conditions. Got caught in one once hoping the roof hatch would survive. Lots of cars damaged and windscreens broken.

Parked up in Albarracin at the moment. Heavy rains plus thunderstorms all day yesterday and last night but no damage. Thinking of moving to Zaragoza today but it looks like the rains have moved that way. Think I will make a decision after more coffee and croissants.
