The weather was lovely but we needed to go up to the garage to sort out the motor problems. We drove home for a bite to eat and then we set off for Anne's Spanish class in Alfaz del Pi. Whilst Anne studied I walked round the town perimeter and really enjoyed my walk. I then did a bit of my own homework before going to meet Angie and Paul for a coffee and a chat.
