Dave and Lucie had decided to avoid the worst of the British weather and escape to Spain for the whole of February. The invited me out to stay with them so after much deliberation I decided to go. It was an easy journey because I was flying out of Sheffield/Doncaster Airport (sometimes referred to as Robin Hood but it isn't in Nottinghamshire - go figure) which is only an hours drive and parking is right in front of the terminal. the downside was the flight was at 07:00 so I had to be up at 03:00 to be there 2 hours before departure.

All went according to plan and landed at Malaga 45 minutes late. I was met by Lucie and a friend because poor Dave had pulled his back and couldn't drive.

The weather wasn't as warm as I'd hoped but there were several days with blue skies and a warming sun. Good food with plenty of beer and/or wine and of course excellent company helped to make it a really enjoyable week.
