What a wonderful time my 12 year old son and I had in Costa Brava for half term – as guests of the Costa Brava and Catalan Tourism boards we were treated like celebrities for five days. We even appeared on the news which was hugely exciting until my daughter texted to say “must have been a real ‘no news’ day in Spain for you to be on it”.
We had an action packed week from start to finish, delicious restaurants, wonderful villages, boats, a skydiving lesson, a cooking lesson, a throwing a pot lesson, Dali visits, fabulous people….it couldn’t have been better.
I’m going to write about some of the activities in the next few days. In the meantime, here are some of the highlights:-
