Winter Camping Los Madriles- the best swimming pool?!

Wow Wow Wow! As many of you know I'm not renowned for being an exercise freak but by heck I'm turning into a fish! Having indulged too much recently in wine and food I decided to try the pools here. I went in the indoor one first ahhhh blisss. It wasn't cold but it was weird as it was sea water heated! I was so buoyant! Swimming 20 lengths took no effort at all and made me look like a really good swimmer! I then became adventurous and tried the outdoor pool......heaven! It was even warmer. There are jucuzzi jets and plenty of space for swimming. The sun was shining,the views at one side were of the sea and the lovely bay and the other side a view of the mountains. I can't wait to go back in. I did wonder why so many people on the campsite wandered around in dressing gowns all day-now I know why and I'm joining the fashion, well that's after I have done the grotty job of having new tyres fitted to the car this morning. I can't grumble the last tyres only did 30,000 miles. They are not illegal by any stretch of the imagination but as I do put my car and caravan through its paces quite regularly I would rather be on the safe side. After all they are the only things between me and the road!
Well having done all that exercise, followed by my walk up the mountain to my caravan there was only one thing to do...strike up the barbecue and have some wine whilst I take in the view and recover! Well life is all about moderation isn't it?!
Tonight there is live entertainment here at the bar. I know I'm out tomorrow night at Marjal and it would be rude not to go and I don't want to show favouritism so I will just have to go to them both! Oh I did miss the quiz here last night. It was a quiz on bloody Lester Piggott! All I can tell you is that he was a jockey that did time for tax evasion-didnt he? I'm not even sure about that! Specialist subjects all sound a bit daft to me and I'm certainly not going to sit here and start studying! What?! Well if I was I could certainl-y think of a better subject! Sewing?! Acting? ( the fool that is!) Come on...get real!
Well it looks as though its going to be another hell of a day with the sun starting to shine over the bay......better saddle up and trott along with the day! Have a good one folks!
