. . .the question asked of us more than any other while we’re doing the dishes. Our close EU neighbours dumbfounded and worried that it could be contagious.
Up to now we’ve had no answer. Mary-Ann reminded me earlier today of the simple reason why we voted to leave the EU. Obviously, it’s because nowadays none of the other countries give us good scores in the Eurovision Song Contest!
It’s Sunday and we Scoot out 21k to Elche – obviously still in the EU.
Elche is famous for its thousands upon thousands of date palm trees. 70K of which grow in the Palmeral Municipal Park. We’re here to visit the Jardin Huerto Del Cura. There are 2,300 species of palm trees worldwide and 1,000 thrive here. The four acre site delights.
The town is an interesting mix of old, new and quirky.
