Day 11 took us out of town for our morning amble - Torrox Costa. This is quite a nice, although relatively standard resort - pretty uninviting name though. The fun bit was that they clearly have some excessive long shore drift here and are struggling to retain the beach. I don't think they have groynes in Spain.

So, we had the interesting perspective of people sunbathing on the sand with diggers, big trucks and earthmovers around and about them.

Not exactly a relaxing scene but it made out walk more interesting. After Torrox, lunch and pool ensued and yet another restaurant in the evening - probably Meson Jose Y Victoria which is a very well priced local. In between we had fun with the aircon again – it was OK for 30 mins but then started leaking once more. I put another call in to the resourceful Pat and she said what she could do(whilst also apologising profusely). The (maybe rather boring) plan that evening was to retire to the apartment and catch the opening episode of Luther on TV as the sunbathing was wearing us out. However, on the amble back we were spotted by previously mentioned woolies and we joined them at a bar for more drinks and chats. By the time we were done we were straight to bed (knackered).
