We had the easiest journeys in both directions
with not a queue in sight! This helped make it a great experience even for our
first time flyers!
Settling in to our beautiful front-line hotel,
we set off for a walk along the promenade and found a nice cafe for a late
lunch before returning to our hotel for pre dinner drinks and a period in the
games room. After dinner it was fun with the entertainments team and we danced
ourselves into our beds.
Breakfast the next day was soon followed by a
stroll along the front and a restful day of mooching around the town. After
lunch it was down to the beach and those brave enough went swimming in the very
safe waters. It was breath taking! Some then walked along the water’s edge
while others sunbathed and even took advantage of a head, shoulders and back
massage whilst on the beach. Once off the beach, we walked into town and had a
drink in an Irish bar before heading back to our hotel, where we got ready for
dinner. Pre dinner we again spent some time in the games room, playing pool,
table-top football and air hockey. Dancing and singing along with the
entertainment team was our how we enjoyed our evening.
The next two days we went to PortAventura theme
park and had great fun. We got wet several times throughout both days and the
brave amongst us went on the biggest rides in the park, of which one
(Shambahala) is the highest in Europe. The rest of us were happy with the
slightly smaller rides and got just as much fun out of the park. There were Wild
West shows, Polynesian dancing and a show with Sesamo characters that were
loved by all. We took a train ride to view the park as a whole. Back at our
hotel we were entertained by Mexican and another night we enjoyed an evening in
the Irish bar with live music.
On
another day we set sail from Cambrils on a catamaran for a two hour trip along
the coast line. It was fantastic and we relaxed as we dreamed of more days like
this! We dropped anchor and a couple of us jumped into the sea for a quick dip.
The captain was kind enough to allow us to steer the catamaran. Afterwards we
walked around the shops in Cambrils and had a spot of lunch and finished this
trip with delicious ice creams.
Following the sea trip we had a day around the
pool and swam several lengths and just cooled off. Some of us also went for a
walk around our local area and went into a market to see wonderful frash fish
and meat stalls. That evening after dinner, we watched a Polynesian dancing
show. It was really good and very funny too.
Our last full day, we set off to visit the old
city of Tarragona where we were lucky enough to see an air display. It was a
lovely day spent in the old Roman city. Our last night, we spent as usual being
entertained at our hotel and dancing late into the night.
We said good bye to our friends at the hotel and
set off to the airport for another easy journey home!!
