Spain

The villa is quite large and squarish, with several rooms. We were staying downstairs, with the kitchen, living room and main living quarters being upstairs. The villa is surrounded by terraces, with the main one down the hill, which the villa is on, looking down on to a spectacular view of Fuengirola and the Mediterranean.

Below this terrace, set into the hill, is a pool. The pool has a small slide on the side, which drops off into the air, then into the pool. Hidden by a shed are some li-lows. While I slid off the slide onto one of the li-lows,my sister floated about on another, sitting up, playing with some plastic buckets and spades, whilst wearing a floaty jacket.

Surrounding the villa are avocado trees, orange trees, olive trees and other fruit bearing trees. To get to the groves of oranges, we had to walk along a long road lined with olive trees, almond trees, prickly pears and lights with wooden covers that look like voodoo skulls. When we got to the oranges, which took about five minutes, we saw lots of trees bearing grapefruits and oranges. The floor had more fruit than most of the trees together, although most of those on the floor were blackened and rotten. The oranges on the trees, when picked, were warm. When I went with my dad and my sister we didn't get that many, but when I went with my mum we got lots more.

When not at the villa we were generally at the beach with the two-man kayak we have in Spain. Kayaking is quite hard, for me any way, especially when you are fighting against waves and a weird current. After kayaking for a bit I would jump out and find stones and shells and catch fish with my hands, then let the fish go. The sand at the beach is good for making sand castles and digging a meter into the ground. After having fun on the sand, we went into a cafe and had fish, with chips(!).

We also went to a harbour called Puerto Banus. At Puerto Banus there are lots of nice big yachts and smaller boats, all tied up. Some had families eating and playing on them. Parked up on the street were several nice cars, including: a Ferrari, a Hummer, an Aston Martin and a Bentley.

In Spain there is a theme park called Tivoli World

We are returning there on the 27th and I hope to do all the same stuff again!
