Glorious winter walk through Mojacar Pueblo.
11:57
On Tuesday me and my parents decided to have a nice run out to Mojacar Pueblo. The start of the journey, was pretty good, the sun was shinning, and the views were beautiful.
My fist photo opportunity came as we drove towards Tabernas (where they used to come and film for the Spaghetti Westerns) when I saw a real life cowboy chilling out at the side of the road with his trusty steed.
We drove our way through Sorbas and wound our way through country roads to Turre where we stopped of to look for a bargain opportunity at one of the second-hand shops that is located there, only to find out it sold tea pots that looked to be stuck together with glue after being broken in 2468 pieces, and the dullest clothes from 1875.
We continued are journey for another half an hour to our destination, and it was just as beautiful as we expected with its up hill roads (that gave us a brilliant leg work-out) and lovely views of both the mountains and beaches around us.
On our journey home my dad suggested a fish and chips and that definitely got our mouths watering and we jumped at the chance of a taste of England. It was all tasty and delicious at thought of it, and after a bit of Google searching and up and down the streets of Mojacar town, we found Zac's Plaice but unfortunately CLOSED FOR THE WINTER.
So as an alternative and another of my dads recommendations, we stopped at a road side bar, sun shinning on the terrace, customers chatting at the tables outside (didn't look too bad, mind you, almost everything looks better in the sunshine). My mums Carne con Tomate came, with lovely fresh bread on the side, everything looking hopeful until my burger arrived, expecting home made burger in fresh bun, fries on the side... Looked at it, touched it, smelt it, left it.
So saying this, next time we go out, I think I'll decide where we eat.
Thank you so much for reading, I really recommend you to view Mojacar if you have a choice, but choose where you eat carefully, and if you have done anything nice this winter holidays please write in the comments, I would love to hear.
Ps, if you ever get a rank burger, be braver than us and complain. Until next time, Ellie x
