Spain 2016 - Day 3

After a little breakfast this morning we drove to Guardamar park for a long walk to feed the peacocks, swans, geese and ducks. It's such a gorgeous shaded park and Henry loves it there. He's talked about it all year since we went last holiday and when we arrived he shouted to a nearby peacock, "Hello Mr Peacock. Nice to see you!" There were loads of tiny ducklings swimming about and eggs everywhere, we even found one next to the path and Henry couldn't have been more thrilled with his discovery.
After a lovely walk we went to a little bar/cafe that we always go to for a proper Spanish breakfast of tomatoey bread, coffee and orange juice. So good. We walked back through the park and Henry went on the slides and swings and then ran through the sprinklers on the way back to the car and was then soaking wet. All good fun.

We made a quick stop at the supermarket and then came home for a quick swim before lunch. No sunbathing for mummy again as Henry wanted to be in the water the entire time! We had jacket potatoes for lunch and then had a long sleep.

We went back to the pool for a few hours after our sleep and had a snack up there which was lovely. Henry played in the small pool so we could sit on the edge and just watch him and he absolutely loved it. It was 6:30pm by the time we dragged him out and his lips were getting blue. He absolutely insisted he wasn't cold but he obviously was so we all went home and he had a nice warm bath before we got ready to go out for dinner.

We went along to La Mata beach for tea and found a lovely Indian restaurant which was absolutely packed, always a good sign. We had a delicious dinner and ice cream and then had a little walk along the shore afterwards before coming home, watching the swallows out on the terrace and then playing dinosaurs before bed.
