Algorfa Restaurants Visit Part One
Several times now, Soph and I have been into town here, often stopping off for a quick coffee or a beer and never got around to doing a write up. So today we visited several Algorfa restaurants that we’d not been to previously. I have to say it was quite…

There’s nothing better in February, to be sat outdoors at Cafe Velacho Guardamar De Segura, in a teeshirt, enjoying a bite to eat in the sun, overlooking the beach, as we did last week. We started off with me ordering a cafe con leche, while Soph had a black tea….
