Dear Simon & Alison, We had a great time exploring places up and down the Costa Del Sol, Gibraltar was interesting though a bit unnerving if you don’t like heights. As a kid i used to watch a cartoon series called Wacky Racers with Penelope Pitstop and Dastardly, will I actually felt I was part of the cartoon whilst driving down the A-7. The Spanish drivers would probably give Lewis Hamilton a run for his money! We found an idyllic beach on the last day which means we will be back to enjoy it. Thanks for letting us stay and sending us the details from the USA. Kind regards, Phil, Karen, Jake and Miles. [York England]
