Perfect day

Slowly awakening from dream.. opening your eyes to realize, it's already morning as the light is beaming trough the paper curtain covering the roof window. When slightly opening the curtain you'll have to screw up your eyes as the sky you see is so bright blue. For breakfast you have all the time in the world; cafe latte, nice slice of bread completed with chocolate croissants/donuts (the rider) and fresh oranges (the assistant). There are worse ways of starting your day.

After completing the training on Sunday, we decided it was a good day for a new tourist trip. The assistant still hadn't seen Aguilas, which was one of the towns the rider lived during his year in Spain. As it was located by the sea and the sun was still shining warmly, it seemed like an excellent destination.

We chose a view route and have to admit that it really was one of the best during this trip. The road was twisting and turning in between green hills, which occasionally turned into almond tree fields and villages. The only minus was our current vehicle... the curving road would have been even more fun in some nice sport car.

Aguilas was a perfect example of seashore town in Spain. Narrow streets trough the city lead to palm-tree-lined seaside boulevard, which connects harbour, beaches and squares. Two landmarks rise above city profile; ancient castle and white windmill. A speciality is Californian style long and high pier adding flavour to the coastline. After getting home we had only one thought... "venta piso en Aquilas". Unfortunately we are still lacking the lottery winning.
