A little excitement this afternoon when a big palm tree blew down across the promenade road and demolished Spasso terrace. Now where do I go for breakfast tomorrow.

They suffered badly in the weather at the beginning of December that produced hailstones. I was amazed when I was up there between Christmas & New year at the amount of orange & lemon trees full of fruit but without a leaf on them. Absolutely ruined. Fields of them everywhere.

Heard a report they'd had 10 inches of snow in Valencia last night. Might have been 10 cms but that's still a lot. And not too far from Beni..........

Just goes to show that the Spanish drive in the middle of the road..
LOL..
It is actually a one way st and most times there are cars parked either side.
So that is the usual path for driving.
I have never seen it that empty, ever..

Oh NOOOOOO......I hope no one on Levante beach has a camera. Ah well, hopefully it will be dark soon.
I'm not saying mr @Snowbird is the sort of person to pay anyone off, but I don't suppose anyone got a photo of snow on Levante beach. 
Because it looks like winter is over in Javea and missed our chance.

This is what heavy snowfall did to the carport at my house in Javea
The roof profile was originally arched.

At El Berro it started snowing on Wednesday afternoon and continued through most of yesterday quite heavily so we had about 10 inches or more in places on the campsite and without snow tyres campervans were effectively snow-bound. Then last night the electricity went off in the village and the site until the early hours. Things have improved today and some of the roads "ploughed" by tractors.
More serious is the damage done to some of the pitch coverings where permanent caravans have green awnings stretched over frames for shade during the summer. The weight of snow has brought some of them down, metal frames and all. Nobody expected so much snow.

We set off for El Berro to visit a friend there on Wednesday. Luckily we decided to turn back. We could still be stuck there now!

I think so. We were walking back along the trail from Casa Leiva mid-afternoon when it started and it was already quite thick by the time we got back to the site.

MIL arrived this morning from Benidorm area, better weather here than her area. Unfortunately with the snow and ice last week she fell and hurt her hip and nose so shes arrived with black eyes and walking stick.
Isn't it raining in Lorca? It is in Totana. We went out looking for a snowy walk today. Had to go up into the mountains. On our return we were with many Spanish families out to see the snow. There's not much keeps them inside, whereas all the "cold country" visitors huddle inside their warm motor homes and complain about the cold
I'm sure there's a Les Dawson MIL joke there, but maybe not the time

Some silly sods braved the rain and wind, escaped the van fever and met up for food and a drink here on the strip in Benidorm.
