Costa Del Sol!!! Ah..h..h...h
Hi Lynne How we would love to be on the Costa Del Sol!! We have had SO much rain here and No summer. Did I see Frigliana in your photos? Have you been to the caves at Nerja? We had an all too short week at Nerja in 2009 with Glyn & Howard. We long to go back. Last year we stayed at Playa Flamenca,Torreveija. It was wonderful to be with our London friends there but it is very British and touristy and Nerja is definitely our favourite. Great you are going to Amsterdam. Sounds like it is your first time...which is amazing!! Happy Easter to you, your family and friends.

Spring
Had a lovely walk round the Bluebell Railway - stunning scenery but not quite so stunning as your photos - looks really lovely - specially liked the blue sky!! xxx

Beautiful artwork!
Hi Lynne, I loved that artwork on the ceilings and the stairs particularly! So graceful and stylish! Makes my bland stairwell look sad! Fancy having the imagination and skills to design something that looks like that! All's well here in Australia! I'm learning French now, and really enjoying it........lots of lovely students to work with.....and hoping to be able to open my mouth to say a few things when I get to France next year! Hugs, Maureen.

HaHei
Just been reading all your NZ blogs - really reminding me of our 10 years in NZ!! We used to go to HaHei a lot - my mum and dad came on holiday with us there for a week - Jack was 7. Fabulous place. Went on the same boat that you went on! There was a couple on the boat with us all, and when we got off, we chatted and found out they lived in Purley, told them my sister lives in Purley,on the Webb Estate, they live on the Webb Estate, told them Annette's hubby is Alan Clarke - they knew him well, from being on the Residents Association!! Unbelievable!. So when we went back to London the following year, they came for drinks at Annette's ! Small world, eh (as they say in NZ)!

Great blogs for us future visitors
Great to read up all your news. Sam and I spending a few nights on our way back from summiting Kilimanjaro in July so we appreciate all the insights!

sounds as if you have had a wonderful trip. Safe trip home and looking forward to talking with you on Skype when you get back.

lovely Oman
Oh what happy memories your photos evoke. I fell in love with Oman and it arrived in my life at a time when I wasn't exactly at my best. Seeing your photos brings it all back. Not sure that I agree with you about Omani drivers though- they must be pretty bad in Dubai!

fantastic experience
Lynne, isn't it a wonderful experience. bill & I went before they built museum/hotel. we stayed @ local hotel!!! drove to beach at night returning again at dawn, the experience on our own with turtles, a dog and a wolf on the mountain top was one of the most memorable moments ever. keep exploring

Well, that sounds like a brilliant experience, having read the blog, by the time I saw the pics I felt like I was actually on the beach myself!! Enjoy the rest of your trip, c u soon xxx

Samantha and I have a couple of days in Dubai on our way back to nz from Tanzania in July so your blog is extra fascinating to us.
