This city is so beautiful. The weather is amazing...think Nevada in springtime, and this is only January. Warm breezes, sometimes windy, the air always the perfect temperature. At night, my favorite thing to do is take a walk around the city. I walk down to Plaza Los Luceros, to the Explanada, to the beach, and back up through La Rambla. Palm trees line the streets, and beautiful white statues and fountains can be found in the middle of plazas. A walk to the beach is only 15 minutes away and the Castillo de Santa Barbara overlooks the city.

nice
Glad your having a good time. I wish i was able to be there with you. Hopefully it all gets old for you in a couple months, otherwise it's going to be really hard to book a flight to come back to the amazing town of dayton. I really miss you, keep updating your blog and taking pics. Can't wait till you get back. Keep writing your mom and aunt a lot. Take pics of the place your staying at too. I'd like to see what that looks like. Love you.

FANTASTIC PHOTOS
WOW! What amazing photos! Wish I were there so I could smack you and say last tag. Not really. I just want to smack you. Seriously, Alicante is beautiful and I'm sure it will be more beautiful in 5 months. Love Dad
